I haven’t seen it yet.
They’re mostly posing, back and forth at the moment.
Which means Trump is not doing anything, frankly, on balance.
We are currently running the BIGGEST trade deficit, with China, in recorded history.
Ever.
Right now.
Look at this chart:
https://census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/c5700.html
Look at this year’s trade balance numbers.
Then look at last year’s trade balance numbers, between America and China.
The numbers are only published through June at this point. But stop for a moment and look at them.
Last year, we ran the worst trade deficit in recorded history, with China. The WORST EVER.
Now compare last years numbers January - June. With this year’s numbers, January - June.
Go ahead. Look for yourself.
You will see EVERY SINGLE MONTH THIS YEAR, thus far, is even worse.
Every. Single. Month.
We have a huge trade problem with China.
Trump ran on this issue. We are not doing anything yet.
Just saying. Trump said all the right things about this issue. But nothing has been done yet. Both sides are continuing to pose on this issue, which China is taking us as a nation, to the figurative cleaners.
President Trump was on this issue when he ran. Strongly. I believe the fact he was, was a big part of the reason he won.
A whole huge amount of Americans, voted for him, partly because of this issue.
Bring back American production, from China.
Do it.
