He's emboldened by an incredibly resilient US economy he claims as valediction. The newest tariffs he's imposed on Chinese goods are not a drag on US consumers, but rather in the service of a better bargaining position for a trade deal, which he'll deliver at some point, he hopes. The trade war with China is"a little squabble.
— Donald J. Trump September 17, 2018 "They will be 'Tariffed!" he said of countries he didn't think were treating the US fairly. It was like a"You're fired!" for his brand of dramatic, confrontational nationalist global trade. A week later he hit China with new tariffs on $200 billion worth of goods. What he's done most recently is raise the rate of the tariffs on those goods from 10% to 25%.Penalties for top trading partners'use strict';CNN.Videx=CNN.
China retaliates with higher tariffs on US goods 01:49The top three US trading partners are Mexico, Canada and China, in that order. Together they represent 43% of US trade with other countries, according to Census data.Trump has hit all three with tariffs of some kind, yet he's failed so far to agree new trade deals. He could be running out of things to threaten.Trump hit China with tariffs last year and threatened more if a deal could not be reached by March.
President & CEO 'beyond freaked' over China tariff hikes 01:56Now that trade talks with China are stalled, markets are spooked, and US farmers and retailers are, in the words of Rick Helfenbein, president of the American Apparel and Footwear Association,"beyond freaked." No matter, Trump said Sunday on Twitter."We are right where we want to be with China. Remember, they broke the deal with us & tried to renegotiate.
Tariffs could cost American family of four $767 per year 02:45His presidency has been spent projecting dominance, issuing threats, demanding concessions and slapping tariffs on the United States' largest trading partners.What he's technically got to show for it, so far, is a trade deal with South Korea, which had the backdrop of North Korea and possible nuclear annihilation to move it along.
I’m know republican hell im not even American but John Kasich actually seems normalsp normal that I could see why people would vote for him and that’s from a left of centre voter
Mr...Lemon loves it...!! same old status quo is not happening on this Presidents watch...
Kasich is full of crap 💩. Same goes for cnn.
He can’t believe it😂where the hell has he been for the last 2 1/2yrs⁉️
Two assholes
When trump did this several months ago the cost of textiles for our company went to a ten year low. So. Great job realDonaldTrump MAGA
why doesn't this guy run against Trump ? seems to be a viable republican option
He said during the campaign he was going to hard on China. Some folk actually do what they say they are going to do. You can not keep kicking the can down the road because things are hard.
JohnKasich would just roll over and let China keep taking advantage of us. Glad he isn’t President!
Why he isn’t President
All jerkoffs go on this network.
Famous last words 'can't believe the Republican just go along' yes they go along with everything emperor trump does Lining their pockets alone the way. Trump causes chaos Attempts to find a fix to be the hero Americans suffer Moves on to the next crisis he causes
John is a afterthought now so CNN using him as a expert is a joke, remember he couldn’t beat trump in the primary.
Beta Kasich
Aaaaaaand who is John Kasich again?🥴
Don Lemon...still trying to squeeze a drop of lemon juice (truth) out of him. Not possible.
Thank you, John Kasich, for not being President.
The “experts” said Trump couldn’t win the election The “experts” said the stock market would crash The “experts” said we would enter a global recession The “experts” said Trump would bring WW3 The “experts” haven’t been right since Trump announced for President in 2015
Too bad Kasich still can’t believe that after so many efforts to become president that he should go away.
That’s why he didn’t get the votes for president… he is oblivious. He’s not a good decision maker and has no clue.
What rock has he been under?
You guys have been wrong at every turn on Trump, back to 2016 election. I'll agree with Chuck Schumer on this one.
CNN doesn’t want to see America doing good everyone should delete CNN they should take CNN off the cable we should protest for that vote for Donald Trump is president for 2020
What a fake Channel. I never know BernieSanders was andersoncooper father or is it grandfather. Look at cooper. He looks so bored. Your fake Russia story is over now it’s time to pay the BARBILL LOL MAGA MAGA2020
John kasich is a trump hater. But, you have to wonder why fox doesn't even want him on their network.
Run Kasich Run! For the good of the party and the Country. You are our only hope! JohnKasich
This is why Kaisch is NOT President!!
SeanMastersons Johnny isn’t getting paid like the others.
Run John Run 😊
Trump 2020
JohnKasich does not have the courage to stand up to some one attacking his family much less China
It’s hard to believe that a political party could b this corrupt with the need 4 power so intense they would steal, lie, cheat 4 it, deny the Constitution, hero worship a scamming, fleecing, inept d-bag 4 it. The GOP we knew is dead. Replaced by greed & self serving hypocrites.
Now there’s 2 brilliant economic minds, smh. I remember when people trusted cnn, the ratings should tell you those days are gone.
Retire John....just go away..maybe a walk in the woods with Hillary.
It's an uncomfortable situation but we can't let other countries walk all over us. If I could change one thing, I'd have the dispute with Japan as well. They expect us to buy their cars but you'd be very hard pressed to find one of ours over there.
john kasich is a doofus.
Kasich should have known the only way the republicans can hold on to power and keep the coalition of undereducated, fearful, resentful lower class whites and the well educated, wealthy, self indulgent whites voting for them is to rally around and support an autocrat like Trump
Yawn...another bitter RINO speaks. 😴
Like I said CNN only hires losers, Look at their line up. Angela Rye, Symone Sanders, Loser Kasich,I mean the list is long. Meanwhile this knuckle head is not PRESIDENT and TRUMP is!!!
He still hasn't figured out that they have no spine?
China has stolen trillions of dollars and millions of our jobs while Democrats and Republicans like JohnKasich sat on their hands. We finally have real leadership! Thank you realDonaldTrump !
And I cannot believe Democrats think they will win in 2020 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I guarantee that not a single Trump supporter can defend Trump's policies using facts. Come on morons, prove me wrong. I'll wait.
JohnKasich why don't you run against him?
