During an interview with Bloomberg on Monday, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo stated that there is no guarantee President Joe Biden will get something in return from China if the U.S. relaxes tariffs on China, and the main reason for him considering lifting tariffs is to combat inflation.
Co-host David Westin asked, “In terms of specific tariffs being taken off or not, is it possible it could be bilateral? Is it possible China could actually give something to the United States to try to reformulate our trade relations?”
Raimondo responded, “Certainly, that is possible and you raise an excellent point, which is part of the discussion, one of the things the president is thinking about, which is to say if we’re going to do this, what can they do on their side of the equation. So, while I can’t say for sure. Certainly, that is possible. And by the way, if it doesn’t happen immediately, it’s something that we will continue to pursue, just in the interest of…fairness. If we’re lifting tariffs, what are they going to do? Having said all of that, I think the president — the reason he’s looking at this is because fighting inflation is his number one priority.

China will play their Biden Blackmail card as well as Ukraine has.
We had low inflation under Trump WITH those tariffs in place.
It’s something else, Joey.
It’s simple - when you make energy expensive everything is expensive!
and I haven’t even yet mentioned the wild printing of money!
cheap chinese goods gonna save the day for babblin’ biden.
Nothing but word salad and bovine scatology from everyone associated with the Biden Administration.
BUILD BACK BEIJING!
Incredible! From a policy perspective the contrast between the prior administration and this administration is stark. Trump was truly a prince from dealing with China to closing the border, to sparking the economy, to opening the energy spigots to handling Iran to fast tracking vaccines and therapeutics and Biden is a mentally challenged devil who has layered in a complete path of destruction
Hey he’s enriching the ruskies and the ukes so why not the PRCs too?-)
So Chinese goods will be cheaper to buy in the USA?
Great.... Put MORE Americans out of work, Joe...
Wonder how much China, Ukraine, and others have the dope on HB?
Reciprocity isn’t what Xi paid for.
They most likely SUPPLIED the $$ and Dope to HB with 10% to the “Big Guy” of course.
FBI does too, that’s why they didn’t do anything with the laptop - it’s more valuable as blackmail material. It’s how the FBI controls presidents.

Such a great negotiator. Somehow Biden’s predecessor got us good deals or he won’t sign the flawed ones. When will Democrats realize the no deal is better than a flawed deal. You’ll always get a lot better deal if the party you are negotiating with know that you’ll walk away if you don’t get concessions from them.
Ronaldus Maximus demonstrated that principle at Reykjavik
China has never lived-up to any promises so why start now.
Absolutely.
Tell it to Brandon.
