"President Donald Trump on Friday threatened to slap a “massive increase of Tariffs” on Chinese products imported into the United States to “financially counter” new export controls that China imposed on rare earths from that country."
“One of the Policies that we are calculating at this moment is a massive increase of Tariffs on Chinese products coming into the United States of America,” Trump wrote. “There are many other countermeasures that are, likewise, under serious consideration. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

That and the fact that China ended its purchases of soybeans from American farms due to the tariffs and, instead, buys them from Argentina who just benefited from a 20 billion bailout from Trump to boost the standing of its pro-Trump leader. Oh, and the American soybeans farmers? Trump's thinking about giving them a tariff-funded subsidy check! You can't make this stuff up!
