President Trump recently enacted a ten percent additional tariff on Chinese imports, and China has enacted retaliatory tariffs in response. Those affirming the tariffs are necessary argue they will encourage citizens to buy more domestically produced products. Those against the tariffs argue they will also create a trade war, harming both economies and global supply chains. Now we debate: Was Trump Right to Increase Tariffs on Chinese Imports?
Arguing Yes:
Scott Paul, President of the Alliance for American Manufacturing
Stephen Moore, Economist, Author, and Senior Fellow at the Heritage Foundation; Co-founder of Unleash Prosperity
Arguing No:
Jennifer Hillman, Senior Fellow for Trade and International Political Economy at the Council on Foreign Relations
Rana Mitter, ST Lee Chair in US-Asia Relations at the Harvard Kennedy School
Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates
