Deficit is small ...
The current $370 billion deficit estimate does not account for value-added. When looking at the value-added content of Chinese exports, the U.S. deficit with China is actually only half of what it seems. And if we then add back the U.S. surplus in "invisibles" and how much money the United States brings back from investments in China, the U.S.–China deficit shrinks from 2 percent of U.S. GDP to 0.8 percent, a report from Oxford Economics revealed.
In the case of the Apple iPhone, this means that China's exports balance accounts for the full $500 iPhone value, when China adds only approximately $15 to $30 of the value to the phone. Most of the iPhone value accretes to Samsung in Korea ($150) and to Apple — the brand owner and engineer. This highlights how the normal accounting of trade flows is inherently distorted under the current trade-deficit estimates. So maybe the deck has only 25 not 52 cards.

The iPhone example also points to an area of weakness in the president's policy prescription: If the United States introduces tariffs on China's high-tech goods, U.S. companies and consumers could indirectly end up footing part of the bill. This is because the high-tech industries that Trump's tariffs are focused on is where Chinese value-added has the lowest share.

For China a trade war with the United States is likely to be more like the loss of a five-of-spades than the queen-of-hearts. China exports more than $2 trillion of goods a year, only about $400 to $500 billion of which goes to the United States.

Trump supporters will be going to Trump soon. The farmers will be hurting when the China's tariffs kick in.

The world is not as simple as Trump sees it. Trump is a conman, now on a power trip. He needs a reality shock.

Trump readies second wave of tariffs! US$100B! MAGA!

The United States has nearly completed a second list of tariffs on $100 billion in Chinese goods, as President Donald Trump prepares to enact an initial round of duties that is expected to trigger an in-kind response from Beijing, several sources said.

Trump is a fool and his supporters are retarded.His national policies and his business strategy are the same......loud,sensationalistic,obnoxious and retarded.if u think this is the way to lay a strong foundation for america's economic future,think again.this is a man whose bankrupted 3 casinos,a mega real estate deal,an airlines and a university.....and somehow managed to profit from it all,a liar and con artist with no concision.....he thinks the US presidency is like a tv show,how to stay in the spotlight the most and the longest.....any publicity is good publicity.------frenchbriefs 2018.

Trade War is too civilized and lame and won't solve world's problems.

[SeeFartLoong]

[tanwahtiu]

Trade war to counter a losing Petrol dollars where nobody want to trade in UD dollars.

Trade war means US shameful to trade with China demand US dollars peg to gold.

Trade war means without US Fed IOU Notes to trade for Chinese goods the US is bankrupt to trade. US is using IOU Fed Notes to so biz wirh the world and go war bully the world using IOU notes.

 

[tanwahtiu]

So standby, no US dollars peg to gold or precious metal US can start grow opium and start opium trade in China.

 

[tanwahtiu]

Standby for another biggest lies worser than 911 to be told that NK change pattern to give US go war in N Asia and accuse China of WMD aim at Guam.....

Thecfucking French lap dog will go to war with US as usual. But no worries Russia will invade French and UK in Europe and China will war with US in Pacific Ocean.... Guam and Spratly...
