Contributing sentiments towards policy:

45% : Trump Administration: Live Updates Updated Feb. 2, 2025, 12:06 a.m.
42% : " On Saturday, President Trump put additional 10 percent tariffs on goods imported from China, as well as 25 percent tariffs aimed at Mexico and Canada.
38% : The big question now for China is how many other countries President Trump will hit with tariffs.
38% : If President Trump curtails the ability of many countries to run large trade surpluses with the United States, countries might resort to imposing tariffs on trade with China.
31% : " China has shown in the weeks since President Trump was re-elected that it may be willing not only to retaliate to tariffs, but also to up the ante.
30% : "China does face a problem if President Trump is determined to close all of the United States bilateral trade deficits no matter the collateral damage to the U.S. economy," Mr. Setser said. Many countries in Asia, Europe and Africa run large trade deficits with China that they can afford only by running large trade surpluses with the United States.
28% : Another risk is that such curbs on exports by China could trigger a further response from President Trump.
