The answer to China and Japan dumping product is not a income taxes.

Everyone but Jeb and Rubio basically said Trumps right.

Trump is right on China. They run a net trade surplus of $500 billion a year with us. If they retaliate against us, they suffer a far greater loss and their economy is worse off.

The politicians don't get it. They think that because goods may go up in price hurting the consumers and hurt our exports, it is not a good strategy. They fail to understand that we have much greater leverage over China and it can be used to get them to act on NK or in other ways we want. The politicians are more concerned about the impact on special interests than they are in furthering our national interests. Bush is more concerned about soy bean exports than what is best for the country.

If we use our leverage the right way, it won't be necessary to get into a trade war with China.
