Americans snap up imports because they have no choice. Take a walk through WalMart, and examine the merchaindise. It's all imported. That's because of the policies of Bush 41, Clinton, Bush 43, and Obama. Trump is the first one to do something about it, and the repair is just beginning now.
At the end of this truce period we'll see what happens THEN, and Trump still has 2 more years left in his term. Plenty more time left to fix the trade deficit. Thankfully, we finally have a president who is actually doing that.
