Now I think, this would bring the amount of Chinese imports tariffed, up near 50%, after this batch of tariffs, if they go into effect.

The thing to keep in mind, is even this batch of tariffs if enacted, is not at all, all of the Chinese imports. Not even. There is another $265 billion or so, of Chinese imports without any tariffs even if this goes entirely forward.

So this would be the lowest level of tariffs, in about half of the Chinese imports.

Just to keep in mind, what this would mean. This is just another step... A lot more can be tariffed as well.

And the amount of tariffs, can be escalated for everything, to also bring additional pressure to bear.

:D

Yeah! Let’s tax the hell out of the American consumer.

That will show those commies.

If Americans buy the tariffed goods because they are still a good buy, the tariffs will in effect be meaningless.
