I didn't say a word about Chinese import duties. I talked only of our sales in China. My data are completely accurate.
I've striven throughout a long career to always tell the truth and the whole truth. I've thus rarely been called a liar. The few times I've been called a liar was not because I was caught in a lie, it was because the accuser was projecting his own failings on me. I will not waste any further discussions on you.
What proof do you have that the Chinese would raise their already onerous tariffs if we start to tariff their imports? This BS. You spreading crap. I apologize, sometimes stupidity is disgusted as a lie.
