Are business shirts and ties on the list?Lol, nobody has been "bending over" for china. Get outta yer echo chamber and look around.That is China’s only hope, for a Dem to be elected who will happily go back to bending over for China. I wonder how much China is going to interfere in this next election. Probably even more than they did in the 1990’s when they paid the Clintons millions.
I think you're barking up the wrong tree.
China has been bending over for everybody else. But not for free. When you go to Walmart and buy that Waring blender you're not paying for it with your money you're paying for it with your job. When Trump says the Chinese are paying billions in to the system to sell goods here he doesn't mean they're cutting a check and sending it to the department of commerce....the tariffs are remitted via sales tax and yes it is fresh Fiat that ultimately sources from the original transaction on the Chinese mainland.
Trump is absolutely right about being pro active...the real question is not about the Chinese...the real question is just how badly addicted are we to cheap Chinese labor? Own a smart phone? Well then you are also an American Imperialist buyer of financial opium.

Bingo. This is all about companies using Chinese virtual slave labor.
The question is, should we keep using it, and keep rewarding China for human rights abuses and environmental abuses? Dems seem pretty keen on doing so. So do old GOPers for that matter,
So do current GOP'ers

The Trumps use Chinese labor because our trade laws make it necessary.
So pointing out they have used Chinese labor doesn’t change the argument at all. The fact that his companies have used it and he is still pushing for tariffs and to bring back manufacturing proves he is willing to do things that benefit the country over his personal benefit.
Trump slapped tariffs on $34 billion worth of Chinese goods — here's the full list of products that will get hit
