If the EU needs their markets flooded with cheap Chinese Imports then they can deal with results of such ignorance

The US has far too long allowed this stupidity to go to the point we are almost bankrupt and have basically funded a military that has world domination in mind.

Have at it.

Europeans are fickle and Slave Labor will be a hard sell.

Among other human rights violations committed daily by the Chinese.

So wait ...

Putin is bad but. Xixi zing ping is good?

Wut?

I also doubt China can deal with the EU’s strict environmental measures. The U.S. accepts China’s cancer causing products much more readily than the EU will.

The EU’s environmental measures serve as a Tarrif of sorts keeping certain products out of Europe.

China's in a bad state. Real Estate bubble popped and that sector is in the toilet. Their domestic market isn't nearly as robust as it should be given the growth trajectory it has gone thru. They have gross levels of overcapacity that they try to dump on the rest of the world. Worst case Europe welcomes the Chinese with open arms. In 6 months they throw their products out because without the U.S. they'd be dumping product into Europe at crazy levels.

We can’t lose a trade war simply because we consume a lot more than we make. To meet demand we have to increase capacity. Increasing capacity creates more jobs, more capital and more demand.

China is the exact opposite. They can’t win a trade war because the make a lot more than they consume. For supply to match demand they would have to decrease capacity. Decreasing capacity costs jobs, deletes capital and lessens demand even further.
