I thought the value of currency was market based.

We didn’t listen to Perot when he told us about NAFTA.

We didn’t listen to Romney when he warned us about China.

We’d better listen to Trump about China. He’s been warning us. This is our last chance.

Only Trump understands what China is doing.

The other politicians running against Trump are so worried about their donations coming in from big daddy donors beholden to China that they don’t even understand what currency manipulation is or how to stop it.Well even if these politicians were to try to understand what it means they couldn’t but of course they won’t because China owns them

The Renmimbi yuan is not the only fixed currency. Central bankers have openly discussed fixing the Canadian loonie low with respect to the USD at times and have fixed it more often.

And other Asian currencies will respond. Also, we running big deficits with EuroZone, so this has little to do with cheap wages.

it’s not like they had $880 billion yuan and printed another $100 billion every month for 7+ years

seriously, it takes some large brass ones to complain about china devaluing their currency while you’ve been doing it nonstop

China is not really a bad guy here. The issue is that the Yuan is pegged to the dollar, and the dollar is soaring against the Euro, among other currencies. Therefore the Yuan is appreciating against their largest trading market, which is the EU, not the US. They had to depreciate against the dollar.
