I’m not being sarcastic or hyperbolic, here. Cutting off our supply of electronics we might use for asymmetrical operations to help us balance against superior numbers is the reason for these tariffs. I’ve said it before: if Trump and the GOP wanted to fix the trade deficit and heal the economy, he’d audit the Fed, bring charges of treason against its board of governors, and dissolve that body all while repudiating the national debt, citing it as a fraud.
