People don’t realize how important brinksmanship is with China.

EVERY POTUS until now has let China do whatever it wanted to unfairly — and illegally under international law — manipulate trade to its advantage and thew USA’s disadvantage. Everyone in the chain just played along to get along since it had the veneer of helping through lower prices — prices so low they put US businesses out of business.

We finally have a POTUS with spine and the uneducated don’t understand it.

China also has a very rigid bureaucracy. Even XI, who seems like an emperor, sits atop a Communist Party which is full of rivals and political enemies and their own fiefdoms.

Something has to move them to action, and Trump knows this and is going big.

In the meantime, he’s put American businesses and others on notice - you can start looking to make and buy your crap elsewhere. Things with China have changed.
