The Trump administration is considering clamping down on Chinese investments in the U.S. and imposing tariffs on a broad range of its imports to punish Beijing for its alleged theft of intellectual property, according to people familiar with the matter.
The U.S. Trade Representative’s office last year began investigating China’s IP practices under a seldom-used trade law that gives President Donald Trump powers to impose trade restrictions to protect American commerce from unfair trading actions by foreign nations. An announcement about the investigation is anticipated in the coming weeks.

It's about time we got serious. We've finally started to put the brakes on a serial burglar after he robbed 1500 homes. Late is better than never.
We have to push back against the Chinese before it's too late. I don't know who's going to fight him tooth and tong, but I suspect the TDS crew will have issues with this. Democrats? They's been pretty quiet lately.
But now who will buy homes in Arcadia and build McMansions on lots that can barely fit them?

Just make sure you work out which Democrats to blame when the self-inflicted economic crash comes.

So you don't support punishing China for stealing our intellectual property and other industrial espionage (most of which occurs in our Defense industry)?
I'm surprised anyone is against taking action against China.

Here's the thing.
"ME NO LIKE! ME SMASH!" is not good foreign policy in a very complicated modern world.
It is ashamed no one in the US understands elementary mathematics any more.
When you have a massive trade deficit, there is no downside to a trade war. I do not need cheap Chinese crap, but there are millions of people on the lower end of the economy in this country who need good jobs... I will gladly pay more for what I buy to restore America to prosperity and its rightful place in the world.
Good start would be getting the kooker left to stop trying to get something for nothing by shopping at WalMart. Cheap bastards.
The US is an economic powerhouse, it's time we flex those muscles.
You Renegotiate Trade Agreements, you do not just impose tariffs and sanctions with your trading partners, especially one that can call in their debt notes and bankrupt us over night. Trump is an Idiot.
That's not how the treasuries work.
China can't magically call in all the debt overnight. The treasuries pay off under the conditions on which they were sold.
Do your homework next time buddy.
That being said, I can agree with the notion that imposing tariffs with trading partners is foolish.
I know that they can sell off their debt, guess who they sell to, Russia, but what could go wrong there......
Yes, only "the left" shops at Walmart. If your comment wasn't so ignorant it would be funny.
I didn't say "only the left." Can't you read? lol
If your comment wasn't so dumb, it would be dumber.
What?
We've got tenses, grammar, syntax, and more.
There are many things wrong with what you have said. Allow me to focus on that last bit.
If American policy makes Americans pay more for things (to 'restore America to prosperity' or whatever) but also everyone else pays less, then everyone else is always paying less for the same things. Trouble is, the feedback loop you are relying on does not exist. If we keep adding tariffs, we get more retaliation. Even if we don't hurt quite as much as an opponent, we still hurt very badly. And if we take the entire world on, we will hurt horribly indeed.
I suppose I should just give up. If people are supporting Trump's trade war idea, we're just about cooked anyway
