Trump starts his Rose Garden border wall announcement 40 minutes late, with a digression on China. He says there are "billions of dollars pouring into our treasury," but doesn't mention that money actually comes from Americans paying the cost of tariffs
You can't say that they make money but that the importer dictates the price. These statements are contradictory.

The other data point that is interesting is how low inflation has been. And the impact on China.

Well...inflation lags tarriffs and I don't always trust the numbers but agree generally. We're seeing inflation in our prices but because of china. It's because of freight and delivery costs.

In my previous company, we worked with factories. We have teams in China that would go over how they made the product. If there are ways for them to make it cheaper, they will work on that including profit. Normal work. I imagine this intensifies with the surcharge.
