Oh Dear, About Those Tariffs On "Gina"

China did cut back on exporting goods to the United States, it also cut back on importing goods from the United States. (see 12 billion dollar subsidies given to farmers, or communism.)

The numbers are in, China so far in 2025 had record trade surpluses of over 1 trillion dollars, China simply sold its products to other countries.

Krasnov can thump his chest all he wants about how great his tariffs were but it appears that Xi ate his lunch, and Krasnov calls China, communist.

So he taxes us without going through Congress by using tariffs. He knows that he’s not as ignorant as he looks.
