I like that tariffs on china are causing manufacturing to leave the evil wicked china. These jobs will likely never go back. I dont care if they do not come to the US as much as glad china loses, and fine they go to other nations. That china loses money means their hostility to the West is less effective. China leadership is a truly evil empire (really only the Xi, but he is in charge). The chinese people are not helped when we empower an evil ruthless dictator.
China commits horrible, horrible humanitarian crimes.
Tariffs are not popular, but their real purpose might be to harm our enemy.
America can absorb any slight price increase.
Keep in mind this:
A 25% tariff does not mean a 25% price increase on the American consumer side. The tariff only taxes the import price, which is only a fraction of the final retail price. An item you pay $100 for in the store might cost the American importer only $10 to import, this is a $2.50 tariff tax, not a $25 tax. And that item might only be a small part of the finished product, so would be a smaller portion of the final price. Not a big deal.
Look at the tariff as a blow to Xi, not as a trade war.
amen, brother. my sentiments exactly.
