I am not willing to endure an economic war with China over North Korea

If the North Koreans hit us or even hit at us I favor nuking them.
I do not favor the talk of many today that we should put economic sanctions--some say even stop import altogether--on China to get at North Korea. The threat today to the USA is not clear to me.
We import a lot of inputs from China at my company and would be severely hampered if Trump stopped imports as the goods are simply not available in the USA or anywhere else. I certainly do not favor shutting down my business so we can punish North Korea and darn sure do not favor putting US service men's lives in danger.

China doesn't want to stop selling you inputs either.

Wanna know a secret? If we stopped importing those inputs and there was a demand for them then Americans would start making them right away.

Congrats on putting more import on your trinkets than stability not only in that region, but the world.
Plus, Iran is watching how this unfolds. Watching it bigly. Why? Because the same inept Democratic Party put them on the path to proliferation just as they did Noki 20 years ago.

when the threat becomes clear to you, it would have already cost many American lives.

So you are against American companies making these goods should we block trade with China.
I mean we are talking about serious job creation right?
SO goes America first.

Americans can't make things as cheap as China does, so those companies wouldn't be able to afford the American rate.

Use nukes to stop nuclear proliferation.
Total War.
American lives > Foreign lives.
That would be my foreign policy. And you know what? I would win the majority of the votes.

That was their decision, if it happens.

Oh they could. They would have to pay a little more than the huge amount they are saving from going out of country, but they could.

You're delusional if you think China is going to kill their golden goose to protect North Korea.
The problem is we haven't had a leader will to use our leverage to get the outcomes we need.

That is not true at all!! One of the main imports we get from China is so heavily regulated in the USA that no one could set up to produce them for at least 5 years. There is one manufacturer in the USA and shutting off Chinese imports would give them a virtual monopoly.
Most people do not understand the mountain of US regulations that keep A LOT of manufacturing in China.

How about we arm Japan and South Korea with intermediate range nukes?
That allows them to defend themselves. Also it incentives China to do something about NOKO because both Japan and SK are their historic adversary's.
Tell China that Japan and South Korea will return the weapons as soon as NOKO is determined to be nuke free.
