Democrats want people out of work and on welfare. They don’t want them having good jobs and questioning where their tax dollars are being spent.
Republicans want consumers to pay higher prices and max out their credit cards even more. They don't want them to have lots of purchasing power and don't want US companies to export goods, either.
A tax on chinese made junk? Let's see how many mucks I give about that.... yawn. I guess I don't care that much. Chinese blatantly violate patent laws and copy all sorts of products.. couldn't care less about them until they crack down on that crap.

Trump's base. They'd burn down their house if Trump told them it would make the liberals mad.

We want people to live within their means.
Also, Democrats scream about global warming but are ok with teakwood desks being manufactured in China by 12 year olds and being shipped across the Pacific with #6 diesel powered ships.
Learn to live with less. Read a book instead of playing with the latest Chinese made tablet.
Anything could cost more due to the tariffs. Medical care could increase, car repair could increase and the cost of food and utilities could increase, even when the food doesn't come from China.
This is because somewhere along that supply chain, some other companies had to pay more due to the tariffs and they are passing this along via price increases. x-ray eqpt increases which means doctors or hospitals will pass along this price increase to patients. Conveyor belts and processing eqpt and computers and HVAC equipment could increase in price due to tariffs which means those companies pass along the price increase. Utility companies could be paying more for various eqpt and services and they will pass this along to the consumer via price increases.

Pork and soybeans? Iowa is in for some bad times.
How many USA pork producers have been bought by the Chinese? It will only matter in jobs.
Many of our farms have been bought by foreigners.
