Trump Announced Coronavirus Tariff on China

Washington DC, March 12 Donald Trump has been insisting for years that our country has been too virally dependent on China, so it is very sad that it took a global public health crisis to prove he was right all this time. When he began imposing strategic tariffs on China in response to its long history of abusive trade practices, the liberals all of a sudden became free-trade fundamentalists, predicting that this new “trade war” would harm the American economy because we have relied so heavily on cheap Chinese imports for so many years. Instead, it was the Chinese economy that took a hard hit, while our economy at home surged to its strongest performance in half a century.

Trump explained Coronavirus pandemic to his MAGA campaign rally. What happened? The answer is simple. Just as manufacturers had once moved their factories to China to take advantage of cheap labor, weak regulations, and lower tariffs on exports to developed economies, these companies are now exporting Coronavirus from China for other countries that do not offer similar business advantages without all of the political baggage from Beijing.

Trump at his campaign rally said, “The Coronavirus outbreak in the USA is a clear violation of Trade deals we had with China. I am going to levy a 50% tariff on every Coronavirus we find on our streets. I can assure you, China will happily pay the tariff because we could catch all the Coronaviruses and ship them back to China. This will make America Great Again.”

Trump further said, “The coronavirus outbreak around the USA could dramatically be decreased through Coronavirus Tariff MAGA.”

Trump base at his campaign rally started shouting with excitement, “Lock Coronavirus up!  Ship her back.”

Trump shouted back, “Folks, we could have build a wall to protect us from illegal immigration by Coronavirus. But, it will cost us money.  Therefore let’s impose Coronavirus Tariff MAGA on China.”
