Trump needs to keep the current tariffs in place and add new tariffs as planned while negotiations continue.

Keep the pressure on.

Personally, I hope the talks fail. I support tariffs. Never met a tariff I didn’t like.

The rumbling sound you hear is the sound of China caving.

[Bommer]

China’s economy is 1/20th of our. We don’t need China as much as they need us.

They better. And more.

[wetgundog]

Got them by their leechee’s.

what about tariffs designed to, say, protect labor unions as they destroy the American manufacturing sector in order to contribute hundreds of millions of dollars to socialist politicians, so they can further destroy the American economy, thereby creating a crisis (”never let a good crisis go to waste”) that can only be corrected by more big government, which caused the crisis in the first place?

China-U.S. to Resume Trade Talks After Tit-for-Tat Tariff Battle

Partner, I am getting so tired of hearing these really ignorant MSM types who keep telling us that we will pay dearly for not going into trade negotiations with China.

Why should we press China to get a trade agreement when they need us more than we need them.

There has been "0" presidents of the U.S. to do what is right for the American worker and country, except for President Trump and I support him 100%. I will tell exactly why we support him in his actions against the Chicoms.

The Chicoms have had it so easy for the past 30 years that in order to trade with the Chinese we must build the exact plants that we have in the U.S. and hand over all of our technology to them in order to do trade with them. I do not even know if our infantile press understands what is going on or they are plain supporters of the Communists/Fascists/Socialists/Anarchists Democrat Party agenda!!!

We all know that our elected officials who are paid by our hard earned taxpayer $$$ have given the Chicoms everything they wanted and our American workers are laid off since it is cheaper to build in China than America because we have given them everything they wanted. These Rinos need to stop paying attention to our U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Lobbyists, Special Interest groups, and K-Street since they do not care about the American worker or American family.

Right now, President Trump never took any campaign $$$ from these above mentioned traitors since President Trump is the only one who cares about the American worker and American family.

These above mentioned groups should be tarred and feathered for going against the American workers. It seems to us that these mentioned groups have no shame whatsoever for their misdeeds and the direction they want to take our great country. Once again, "Thank God for President Trump."

Go ahead China, make my day.

I’m with ya
Screw the lying cheating commies
Drive them
Into the ground
Screw all the sellouts here too. There’s plenty

[SpeedyInTexas]

I like all tariffs including the tariffs you describe.

[jonrick46]

Winning!

Are you sure?

If tariffs are so great why don’t we just raise our rates and do away with the Income Tax as originally planned.

Personally I believe Trump is not a big tariff fan but does know leverage when he sees it. And he could care less if the Chinese love him.

[dan on the right]

Tariffs are a means to an end.

Trump is playing them brilliantly, even though MSM goes out of their collective way to find someone who is temporarily losing a small percentage of their sales b/c of the China (or Euro, Canadian or Mexican) tariffs.

If we can sell our goods to other countries with fair trade rules (reciprocal) - in addition to the tax cuts; the economic sky is the limit!

[central_va]

Yes, More tariffs! I would support a trade embargo. Short term pain in exchange for long term gain.

Ok John you've been told these FACTS before. Unions are dead. Less the 9% of the manufacturing workforce is unionized. OK. Get it yet? It's a dead issue.

[central_va]

These above mentioned groups should be tarred and feathered

Better yet ground into dog food.

[central_va]

If tariffs are so great why don’t we just raise our rates and do away with the Income Tax as originally planned.

I am ok with that.

[central_va]

Tariffs are an end in of themselves.
