There’s already a trade war going on, and we’re losing.

Cheap technical assistance is beamed in via satellite and high speed lines from Indian call centers.

The Chinese ignore our copyrights and flood the market with overly cheap stuff.

And clothing is made everywhere, but here.

I think your meaning of “trade war” is not the one commonly utilized. Further, I think your meaning of “losing” can be fairly described as Orwellian - we have benefited disproportionately from globalization.

We already established that US unemployment rate was less than 5% with all these imports (that by the way also raise the living standard of the American people). Why are you repeating a failed argument?
