Donald Trump's Plan to Heavily Tariff China Goods ‘Ludicrous’: Nikki Haley

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley calls Donald Trump’s proposal of a 60% tariff on all Chinese imports “ludicrous,” saying increasing tariffs is not a viable way to raise money and “all that does is raise taxes on American families.”

Some people can't take a hint. I'm looking at you Nikki.

Anything this clam says is a bad idea - is a VERY VERY good idea.

Sanctions supporter but not a selective tariff.. Say NO to Warmonger Nikki Clinton

Might as well pack our backs & move on down to Mexico to make a decent living if Chump gets reelected, and I was born here in America. I have a better shot of landing a good job & affording a new truck & home in Mexico, than I do in America, and that's a sad fact after having looked into the prospect & the truth of the matter.

Tariffs Raise Prices and Reduce Economic Growth

Bloomberg you need some control on the Russian trolls in the comments

Excellent, happy to see inflation hits double digit and interest rate too, 👍 😀 👌

So if a company like Walmart that imports quite a lot of Chinese goods as well, has to pay for these proposed tariffs, will this cost then be passed on to their customers?

"Well, heaven forbid we inconvenience the Chicoms with tariffs because, who cares about pesky things like lax environmental regulations, dubious gain-of-function research, and their blatantly illegal actions in the South China Sea? Oh, and let's not forget those stellar labor standards – or rather, the lack thereof. Let's just keep enjoying those 'Made in China' bargains, shall we? What could possibly go wrong?"

En français :
"Eh bien, que le ciel nous en préserve de déranger les Chicoms avec des tarifs, car, qui se soucie de choses ennuyeuses comme des réglementations environnementales laxistes, une recherche de gain de fonction douteuse, et de leurs actions ouvertement illégales en mer de Chine méridionale ? Oh, et n'oublions pas ces normes du travail exceptionnelles – ou plutôt leur absence. Continuons simplement à profiter de ces bonnes affaires 'Made in China', n'est-ce pas ? Qu'est-ce qui pourrait bien mal tourner ?"

En español:
"Bueno, cielos nos libren de molestar a los Chicoms con aranceles porque, ¿a quién le importan esas molestias como las regulaciones ambientales laxas, la dudosa investigación de ganancia de función y sus acciones abiertamente ilegales en el Mar de China Meridional? Oh, y no olvidemos esos excelentes estándares laborales – o más bien, la falta de ellos. Sigamos disfrutando de esas gangas 'Hecho en China', ¿verdad? ¿Qué podría salir mal?"

Українською:
"Ну, нехай небо береже нас від того, щоб турбувати Чикомів митами, бо кому подобаються такі неприємності, як нестрогі екологічні норми, сумнівні дослідження здобутку функцій і їх відкрито незаконні дії в Південно-Китайському морі? Ах, і не забувайте про ті чудові стандарти праці – або точніше, їх відсутність. Просто продовжимо радіти цим 'Зроблено в Китаї' вигідностям, чи не так? Що взагалі може піти не так?"
