Have you even been in any Walmart recently?

Practically EVERYTHING they sell (other than food) is now made in China.

Also every K-Mart. Also every Target. Also every other store in America.

We need a president, to stand up for America.

Trump is (sort of) doing that, but he seems very, very, very week on China, about trade. At least thus far...

Just saying.

The figures also reveal a 37.8% increase in China exports to the United States which, when set against an 11.1% rise in imports translates to a trade surplus of $26.6 billion.

So we've seen a 37.8% rise in imports from China to the U.S., and an 11.1% rise in exports from the U.S. to China.

Would Americans be better off if the numbers were 0.0% and 0.0%, respectively?

I do most of my clothes shopping at fairly high priced women’s stores-———even THEY are 99% imported and the few that are made in the USA have fabric that is imported.
