This is David and Goliath, our "deals" with the US......do NOT hurt the US, and in fact help the US consumer.  Our economy is 1/10th the size of the US......and we don't OVERLY effect their trade deficit or markets.......as he campaigned on, China has a real effect, not our puny country.  He needs to "look good" and make his followers think he is doing something tough...so he picks on us, cause it is REALLY tough to pick on China.  Just like all he does, bluster but NO substance.
