Trade wars cost jobs in our export industries and raise costs for consumers and businesses. The letter is here.

[PJBankard]

We are already in a trade war and we are currently losing. This will level the playing field.

[Ingtar]

The Chinese control that many trade associations already?

[Jim Robinson]

Looks like these associations are more concerned about globalist corporate interests than the interests of American citizens and workers.

“We focused on tariffs because we know they don’t work,” said Dean Garfield, the chief executive of the Information Technology Industry Council, which organized the letter. “

They seem to be working quite well for China.

Idiot.

Horsesht. Increase tariffs decrease income tax on export

What cost jobs is export tax aka income tax

The IrS bureaucracy is the number one job and business killer

[kaehurowing]

This shows you how much China already controls the U.S.

I have a friend that made a killing in Chinese trade.
He will adjust or count his money and retire.

Life will go on.

Put a tariff on steel and you protect the steel industry. The same tariff on steel has negative consequences for any industry that BUYS steel.

Trade Associations = Globalist

[ncalburt]

I love to see a Globalist Never Trump shill whine away .

The Chinese Military industrial complex need useful idiots like help
Strip away what is left of our manufacturing .

The Commies depend on Globalist fools like yourself .

[Moorings]

Horse dung! What were these "trade associations" doing all these years as China blatantly took advantage of US? What were their solutions? How many "joint letters" did they send to past administrations to ask them take care of China's economic and trade shenanigans?

Obviously they did not give a penny's worth of care about the problem until Trump decided to act.

Mr. Trump, please don't listen to these monkeys. They do not care about us.

[fedupjohn]

Unbelievable!

Don't these morons don't understand, the Tariffs are the stick to force negotiations to remove the foreign ones. Geez
