Summary
China has shrugged off the latest U.S. tariff hike, dismissing the Trump administration’s threats as a “meaningless tariff numbers game.”
Donald Trump’s move to impose tariffs “wiped trillions of dollars off Wall Street” and raised duties on foreign goods, claiming to bring back U.S. manufacturing jobs.
A White House fact sheet announced tariffs on some Chinese imports would rise to 245%.
China’s Commerce Ministry said the move “fully exposes the fact that the United States has become irrational” and vowed to see the trade war “through to the very end.”
I mean, I see it a positive that China is telling us to go fuck ourselves, which will greatly increase the economic hardship that the average white moderate faces, which might wake them up to the horrors that are happening around them. As for the trade war as a whole, idk I think the world will generally be better off cutting out America.
