We need to stop putting tariffs on specific countries, I don't know when that started but that needs to stop. We need to tariff specific products, no matter where it is made.

It the USA was serious we'd put up a uniform across the board tariffs on all imports.

What's the point of that? If we tariff the crap out of only certain items, places like China will simply go around it. While still putting massive tariffs on out stuff. Likewise for any other country: they all have different levels of tariffs on us, as well as different levels of subsidies. The only way to counter that is to tariff specific products from that country, not just random products from everywhere.
