'I would like to go to DEFCON 1 with China'
President-elect Donald Trump arrives to speak during an America First Policy Institute gala at his Mar-a-Lago estate, Thursday, Nov. 14, 2024, in Palm Beach, Fla. that he would like to see higher tariffs on China, arguing that China is to blame for trafficking of fentanyl into the U.S. He called for the U.S. to be stronger on China, saying that the proposed 35% tariffs on goods from the country is not enough.
“And I live it in my businesses every day. I would like to go to DEFCON 1 with China, tariffs 400 percent, I brought it up, bring the supreme leader to Washington, or crush his economy until he has riots in the streets for food,” he added. While O’Leary said Trump is "going to get tougher on China," he argued that more should be done to crush the country.
