10% would not affect Chinese exports but increase inflation in the U.S.

China trade with US is only 3% of their GDP. So no, tariff from the US is not a great power over China. In fact, The US trades with China is actually increasing even throughout the 8 years of trade war with China.

Tariffs are a tax on American businesses that import goods from foreign nations. Donald Trump's trade wars with China resulted in a U.S. trade deficit of $679 billion. During Donald Trump's presidency, the U.S. bankruptcy rate increased 8%. Farm bankruptcies increased 20%. The U.S. economy shed 2.9 million jobs, including 1.4 million in manufacturing.

Saying rather not doesn't mean he won't.

Trade with US is only about 10% of the total foreign trade of China. Of course China doesn't want lose even a penny of its trade but if it is going to happen, then China has to retaliate for compensation.

Whether its 1%, 10% or 100%, when the tariff are not useful than don't implement it. With all the sanctions and tariffs already imposed against Chyna they still comes up top with a mouth watering 1 trillion trade surplus last year. That proof that tariff is not working at all.

China is far ahead when it comes to technology and infrastructure. There subway is more advanced. USA loved to hate on other countries it don’t look at how advanced other countries are getting

1st. Taiwan is a province of China. Read the three joint communiqués
2nd. US is the ambitious one. US has hundreds military bases surrounding China while China has none surrounding US.
3rd. If US intends to lower its trade defisit, dont ban your Chips sales to China. Of course there is a deficit if you just buy but don't sell

[scyllasmite]

trump = they take alot of money from us! thats why we put tariff!
another reporter = why the tariff on Canada and Mexico is higher than China?
Trump = because the tariff on China is already high, we take alot of money from the tariff!

make decision please, did you take or taken money from them

[bentcn]

Maybe he should impose tariffs on Vietnam.

[PhoenlxA]

Sure, American farmers can't take another hit

[nonyabizness]

China uses the trade balance money to build their military, to protect their trade shipping routes to the US 😂😂😂

[上正止]

It is not 10% but more, because the previous tariff add on a few yrs ago is still there. A 10% tariff as he said is 10% on the original price + past tariff .Got that?

[gandhikumar]

Everything is different from 8 years ago his first election
