Donald Trump has once again turned up the heat on #China amid ongoing discussions about the #TikTok Deal!

In a strongly worded statement, #Trump warned of potential tariffs if China obstructs the deal:

“If China didn’t approve it, we could put tariffs on China. Don’t forget, China charges us tariffs, and we charge them very little—except for what I did. I put a lot, and we took in hundreds of billions of dollars. Before I came along, China never paid 10 cents to this country; they ripped us off and never paid anything.”

Trump emphasised that a good deal for TikTok could ultimately push China to cooperate, adding:

“If we wanted to make a deal with TikTok and it was a good deal, and China wouldn’t approve it, then I think ultimately they’d approve it because we would put tariffs on China. I’m not saying I would, but you certainly could do that.”

This statement highlights Trump’s ongoing tough stance on trade with China and his focus on U.S. economic leverage.
