My take is Mark Cuban now thinks Trump's tariffs will work and wants to be on the winning side.

No tariffs on Russia because no manufactured goods imported to America to compete with our manufacturers. We want to import the raw materials like fertilizer needed for American producers. Drop the sanctions, Euroweenies be damned.

The Republicans don't want him and after this statement the Dems will REJECT him at the get-go.

Agree - however he obviously belongs to the EGO party and that drives him.

I think he’s against the sledge hammer tariff approach and favors one with a bit more finesse.

The Administration has not levied strategic tariffs. They SHOULD have.

BINGO!

Why not laser-focus on China?

Declaring trade wars on Malaysia, Israel, Colombia, and every other nation on earth is counter-productive.

"The Administration has not levied strategic tariffs. They SHOULD have."

Why? They are a starting point for negotiations. Would you rather they waste years on planning and run out of time to implement them ?

Trump comes in with a power move by implementing the tariffs and then letting others countries approach him hat in hand to negotiate.

That is patently absurd.

You don’t launch negotiations with over 100 nations at once.

If you are in the playground and you see a bully, you don’t pick a fight with the dozen other kids, you go after the bully.

We needed (and still need) to tame China. Using a shotgun approach to global trade dilutes our leverage.

Numbers:

US Trade deficit annual about $1.5 Trillion.

China is 37% of that.

So 63% is not China.
