"President Donald Trump has a lot of power to make things happen in this country. He can move economic markets with a single tweet. He can destroy a Republican's political career on a whim (see "Flake, Jeff"
"Our Country has lost, stupidly, Trillions of Dollars with China over many years. They have stolen our Intellectual Property at a rate of Hundreds of Billions of Dollars a year, & they want to continue. I won't let that happen! We don't need China and, frankly, would be far better off without them. The vast amounts of money made and stolen by China from the United States, year after year, for decades, will and must STOP. Our great American companies are hereby ordered to immediately start looking for an alternative to China, including bringing our companies HOME and making your products in the USA. I will be responding to China's Tariffs this afternoon. This is a GREAT opportunity for the United States. Also, I am ordering all carriers, including Fed Ex, Amazon, UPS and the Post Office, to SEARCH FOR & REFUSE all deliveries of Fentanyl from China (or anywhere else!). Fentanyl kills 100,000 Americans a year. President Xi said this would stop - it didn't. Our Economy, because of our gains in the last 2 1/2 years, is MUCH larger than that of China. We will keep it that way!"
Donald Trump can't just 'hereby order' whatever he wants - CNNPolitics
If he got more products made in the USA rather than China as he wants, it would create a lot of jobs , strengthen the economy, strengthen America, and they would be better products.
Presidents like Obama would not have the courage to stand up to China. We have become dependent on and addicted to China, and need to wean ourselves off this unhealthy dependence.
Although Trump's actions could have severe consequences, he's demonstrating a boldness and strength that is good to see in a leader. The Chinese government is one of the most corrupt and rutheless governments I can think of. They cannot be trusted and are not someone we should be dependent upon.
