re: I just listened to Mark Levin's Friday podcast and I'm shocked at his position on trade.

quote:

---

Nobody made Boeing do anything

Boeing chose to do what they wanted because it was good for Boeing

I'll never understand "nationalists" being mad about China looking out for China

Tariff the shite out of them, and they'll still keep looking out for China

Calling out for "fairness" is what weak entities do. It's embarrassing.

I have no problem with China looking out for their best interests. I just ask American leadership to do the same here.

China won't buy Boeing from the US as an import. Instead for Boeing to have market access they require Boeinh to build a plant there, then China will steal the technology and kick Boeing out to produce their own planes. They will subsidize it and undercut a lot of Boeings markets in the rest of the world. To protect an American company after China inevitably does this, tariffs on Chinese built planes will be necessary. If China does not do this, and allows Boeing to keep producing planes, tariffs will not be needed. It's that simple and Trump is correct in his approach
