There lies the weakness for the Chinese. There are many Asian and might I say South/Central American countries that would gladly take up the slack if China would be cut out of our trade. There would be a short time of economic adjustment but we (America) would be much better off in the long run. As for agricultural exports, the need to feed is still there and we are are the best equipped to fill it. China might not be buying grain from us directly but would still need it even if through a 3rd party.

We have been served poorly by greedy companies like Apple ever since Nixon opened up the China markets. Now is time to right the ship.

Ah. China cut out of our trade would finally rid us of women’s pants made of inner tube like fabric and shirts of thin, clingy rayon. Ah. Trump our hero
