Does Rand Paul back President Trump in this effort or are his words hollow when he calls President Trump the Best Foriegn Policy President in generations?
“The countermeasures China has taken are to safeguard its sovereignty, security and development interests and maintain the normal international trade order, and are completely legitimate”
Just like we can do as a sovereign nation commie. FAFO at its best! We don’t need their cheap junk.
Looks like China going to be a trade war.
The US will suffer greatly in the short term as we have become dependent on products from China. Trump has to know that there will be an immediate pain. Further, we will have to bring home medications and many medical device manufacturing back to the US. Likely, new factories here will have to be dependent mostly on robotic production.
Invention is the Child of Necessity. We may be seeing the next ‘industrial revolution’ being born from the great tariff crisis of 2025.
So, when the tariffs reach 200% with each other, we basically stop trading with China?
I don’t know why but this Made me laugh out loud
Now is where Xi decides to continue tariff wars or move toward something harmful to both the US AND the CCP, such as symbolically trying to dump US Treasury debt holdings. China holds something near but less than a trillion of these, out of our total 36 trillion national debt. I think them dumping it hurts them more long term tho.
Great. Hopefully businesses pull out of China and move to Korea, Vietnam, and back to the USA.

The CCP susidizes all industry. So the tariff on their exports can be paid by the CCP, for a while. Would it be such a bad thing if we stop trading with our enemies?
Methinks, this very public embarrassment puts the CCP in a corner, and they will have to do something very rash to maintain their tenuous control over the country, something like invading Taiwan.
So be it..
Sorry, the way I look at it the crises was doing nothing.
The quality of Chinese products has always sucked ass.
It’s high time they stopped being single point supplier for anything we need.....ESPECIALLY prescription medications.
Puerto Rico already has the infrastructure for drug manufacturing. Ramp that up and it’s a win/win for the US.
Take that, yuh Devil Worshipin, Satanic inspired, Kommies....
My thoughts as well.
Hopefully cooler minds prevail.
This is how Godless countries react (even some Christian based countries [see Germany WWII]).
We would have to outlaw private equity to make that happen, these firms are hell bent to deindustrialize the west via "Climate Change".
FAFO works both ways. I care less about Chicom cheap garbage but America needs to learn how to make ships, chips and medicine again. American Taxes and regulations are also killing the country.
Agree. They will do something rash to save face.
