Main difference is China doesn't have to answer to its people.

Would they tweet:

Only 3% of the total US agricultural production goes to China. I guess I shouldn't have counted on China to be my one and only customer.

If the US began an embargo on a country that purcahsed 3% of our natural gas production, would these people be so upset about how unfair it is to natural gas producers?

The already beleaguered consumer will now get hit with sharply rising gas and home heating prices, particularly on the wealthy coasts where so much of our GDP is generated. The world economy which has suffered more than our own from Trump could fall into recession. Maybe Trump can use that as an excuse to backpedal on his moronic tariff stance.

I always like to look at who writes these articles. He's a nobody. Purely an opinion writer.
Probably the same person as the op.
