Trump is getting急, he wrote on social media: "If China does not withdraw its 34% tariff increase before tomorrow (April 8, 2025), which exceeds their long-term trade abuse, the United States will impose an additional 50% tariff on China starting April 9."
He also emphasized that he would stop all meetings and negotiations with China, and start negotiations with other countries immediately. On Air Force One flying to Joint Base Andrews, Trump looked serious, saying one thing and then another.
One moment he advised investors not to panic, the next he called on the public to persist. He also claimed that tariffs were earning "billions of dollars"...
In fact, after Trump signed the "reciprocal tariff", he specifically focused on the China topic. He previously stated: "We have a trade deficit of tens of billions of dollars with China - we lose thousands of billions of dollars in trade deficit with China every year. Unless we solve this problem, I will not reach an agreement."
His words sounded very tough, but he kept mentioning "negotiations, agreements", it's obvious that what he really wants is for China to sit down and talk with him, and hope some companies move to the United States.
However, what he got was not these, but a powerful response!
