Trump Is Keeping His Promise On Tariffs. But How To Decouple From China?

What this episode covers

What makes Donald Trump different from most other politicians? He actually keeps his promises! For example: tariffs. Since the 80s, Trump has been saying that other countries have screwed the United States economically. During his reelection campaign, he promised to do something about that -- with tariffs. And look what's happened! Over 70 countries have come, hat in hand, asking for a deal. Except China. They think they can go toe-to-toe with America economically. With past presidents, they'd probably be right. But not with Donald Trump! But now the question is: how do we decouple from China? Past administrations have allowed so many things we depend on to be built in China. Steven W. Mosher is a China expert and the President of the Population Research Institute and he's got some ideas on how to isolate the Chinese Communist Party.
