Trump knows only one thing, China. But his approach is pure dumb. Penalties on China goods coming in to the US hurt the average and poor America during this depression. Taxes and regulations should be reduced in the US to get business started. There is much more, but Trump is jackass.
If we have nitwits tinkering with China we could trigger an economic collapse in China. China is having problems too and our debt situation there would cause grave consequences if China was pushed recklessly.
