On Tuesday, on Fox News Channel’s “Americas Newsroom,” Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary said President Donald Trump’s plan to implement 10% tariffs on China is not enough to squeeze them.
Co-host Dana Perino said, “So Mexico and Canada were obviously motivated to try to get to a deal with President Trump yesterday, and they got a 30-day pause. Do you think President Xi is of a similar mind?”
O’Leary said, “No, I don’t. I think China is a completely unique situation, very different than Mexico, very different than Canada. China, since 1999, when they joined the WTO, has never abided by the rules in any single year, and they certainly don’t abide by IP law. And clearly, the fentanyl issue has been outstanding for years. In addition to that, from a manufacturing point of view, a company we all know well, Apple does a massive amount of manufacturing and job creation there.”

Saw him on Gutfeld last night. 30 minutes into the show Gutfeld changed the topic to something stupid and I shut it off. Kevin should not be in that crowd discussing whatever it was.
My uncle owned a machine shop way back in the 60s...China was dumping their steel like it was candy.
Don’t worry Leary, I’m sure China will get out over their skis soon enough.
Like Donald doesn’t know that.
The Gutfeld show has really deteriorated. The inclusion of multiple ‘humorists’ is rarely entertaining and generally as distracting as a bunch of high school wise guys. Ty is sharp, but that’s about it.
It will come.
Kevin is either lying or being stupid here. China already has tariffs between 20%-50%. This is an additional 10% on top of that.
I wouldn’t mind seeing 100% but 30-60% is pretty good.
Yes and China uses prison labor. And it stamps out any division and persecutes Christians and other minorities. Not to mention stolen naval technology. Why is it that everyone is so afraid to fight back?
Good. If it bankrupts dollar stores and Walmart I will be dancing.
**Gutfeld deteriorated. The multiple ‘humorists’ is rarely entertaining and generally as distracting as a bunch of high school wise guys. Ty is sharp, but that’s about it.**
Right. Maybe the humorists is all they can get or it’s there for the young viewer. Still a bald billionaire can’t really be cool.
I still enjoy the monologue and the first (semi-serious) segment).
The US NBA made special rules against Wilt Chamberlin too. Why? Because he was better than everybody else at what he did.
Have Patience. DJT knows what he is doing and anticipates China’s responses. You cant second guess a shrewd bargainer while he bargaining.
