From taxing the american people to death to taxing countires, but its a very very risky move, even warrret buffet said it is a bad move.

Bro, jobs have totally dried up in EU states because they left their economies open to Chinese overcapacity production ND dumping .. while the US adds jobs monthly to it's economy more than any nation on earth

Trump is right.

I during Covid19, the United States and some other Nations including Nigeria suffered shortage of face mask because of over reliance on imported face mask from China.
Many US companies are outsourcing their production to China and it's wrong because anytime there is a pandemic or lock down in China it affects the US. It's even a security risk.


We should start producing our own Solar s in Nigeria. We have the resources and manpower. China is gaining heavily from us. The trade deficit is too much

You don't understand what people are saying. Nobody said Trump didn't have a point but what people are saying is that he's addressing the problem the wrong way.
Some factors were responsible for manufacturers moving productions outside USA, that's what he's supposed to address. Banning this and that, putting high tariffs on imports won't make factories back in USA without addressing what is responsible for them moving abroad

He go better make you face ur problems at home, America has the know how and capabilities to produce and export anything it deems fit. People wa get country no dey cry na u dey cry
Reducing port is nothing bad bro
U stopping ur country from being a dumping site
Now to China am pretty sure you aware that factories has started closing down fast, malls are empty, majority now depends on noodles and vegs
China is feeling the heat more
Before now, major factories are moving out

American movie producers have been going to foreing countries to make their monies, its a lot cheaper less hassle and it has exposed the local talent ion those countries to the world, they are also using AI and CGI to make movies, AI generated images of known stars, I think AI wil kill the movie industry.

Love my classic movies 50s to early 2000s, when movies were movies.

I think AI wil kill the movie industry.

Dey play grin grin

Tis is not the way to right this though. You start by offering incentives for your local production and begin to grow it before you slam on these kinds of tariffs. What these tariffs are going to do is make it even harder to start up production because you have to import the parts in the first place.

In the case of movies what incentives are on ground to encourage people to come to the United States to make movies or establish a movie studio?

You don't know what you are talking about.
Do you subscribe to Netflix, viki, IQIYI, tencent, jiohotstar and others?

If you don't,step aside as this is beyond you
I subscribe to 5 of these and I have already explained what's happening like 1 month ago before this.
If this is not done, Netflix and the rest will die natural death in no distance time. And they have been overrun by these foreign platforms in their country not outside.
Trump is fighting for the survival of American companies and these companies came to him for urgent talk before he took this action

Yh na to know mr subber

Same American men that are screaming their foreign spouses should not be brought to America, so as not to trigger abandonment by their foreign spouses?

Better go and start watching cowboy movies now to learn what American values are.

Unfortunately, the real Americans are native Americans that have known the land for thousands of years

Everyone else is an immigrant

US want China to come to the negotiating table so they can renegotiate the trade .
I read China have not been keeping to agreement, patent are stolen, mass produce in to different types and eventually kick the original inventor out of business and you can't sue them for patent theft in China.
They have not been keeping to the WTO agreement since they ed.
This is why Trump is raising the tarrifs to make them come to .
