USA is not DJI's only market

True, but it has been some 75% of their total worldwide sales.

What you failed to recognize is that CHINA has had high tariffs on many goods from the US, making them too expensive to be purchased, for decades. They’ve been able to sell their goods here. And CHINA has also imposed outlandish barriers to our goods (other than financials). THAT is how we are on the short end of a $300 BILLION TRADE DEFICIT. So, perhaps by at least leveling the playing field, the US can compete.

No idea how you came to that conclusion, I was simply clarifying how tariffs work.

folks, this is what we are up against. so the US national debt is $36T, how much is China's?

Let’s work down our debt first

It's $15T and I'm wondering who you think it ripping them off since you seem to being no one incurs such a large debt unless they are getting ripped off. After all, *everybody* can't be in debt according to you, right? If America is serious about working on the debt, perhaps they get their spending under control or working on raising more revenue. Maybe forgo some of those unusual tax cuts that amounted to adding +$8T to the national debt from 2017 to 2021.

The reason the fat cats finance Trump and the Republicans is to insure that their $4 trillion tax cut is renewed in 2025. Everything else is a distraction and political theater. Being able to enact a nationwide tax increase without a vote by Congress was clever. The corrupt Congress is allowing the illegal enactment of tariffs by the president.

Legally the tariffs are first approved by Congress and then a Harmonized Tariff Schedule is published annually. In the history of the United States (when it resembled a democracy) there has never been a president enacting tariffs much less doing so in a punitive manner. Putting the USA into a recession is going to be the long term impact and it will not be the fat cats (affluent elites) that suffer.

And how about that Build Back Better scheme. And let’s not forget the Inflation Reduction Act Plenty of blame to go around. At some point in time, we’d either go bankrupt (as history has shown) or someone’s gotta step up. Someone has stepped up. We should ALL be hoping and praying Trump is successful. Unless you’re against America.
