China Doesnt Play By The Rules

I mean look, you've called for 400% tariffs on China.
Won't Trump's plan make things more expensive? Actually, we have tariffs in place now.
Biden Harris Administration did not remove any of them that were in place when they took over the administration.

Going through Congress right now in a bill that I approve of is a Reciprocal Tariff Act, basically looking at each nation's tariff against us and matching it exactly the same.
And that all works with the exception of China.
China came into the WTO in 1999 and has not played by the rules, not a single year.
I do business there, along with millions of others, and I know how it works.
They cheat, they steal, there's no IP protection.
We can't buy land the same way.
They use our courts; we can't do the same there.
They litigate us here; we can't do that.
They don't play by the rules and compliance in listing their companies, so that's a different narrative.

All I want to do with China is to bring the supreme leader to Washington to negotiate a Level Playing Field like we have in the act now.
Tariffs themselves have been called many different titles, including sales tax, that's not true.
Tariffs are there; they're generally used temporarily to level.

For example, Germany puts a 10% tax on us on automotive; we do the same to them.
Most of our trading partners understand why we do this to each other, but not China.
I will give you the final word: if she loses, it's because the Democratic Party circumvented democracy, and they anointed her.
The problems that plagued her in '19 and in 2020 are the same she has today, and obviously, nobody thought that true.
