Hmmm... I wonder if a magic wand would work.
Typical Lefty non-response. Nobody ever said tariffs would change their entire economy structure, and no economic tweak can fix every problem in the world. Those standards are impossible and thus irrelevant. Making tariffs between the US and China a little more equal give a nudge to American manufacturing, and brings a few more jobs back here. That alone makes it worth doing. All these doomsday warnings are simply to help defend their Communist masters in China.
