This would be inflationary. Argue it’s worth it. But don’t argue reality. If you want to pay more for everything, then do this.

There's a logic argument to do this for China but not the rest of the world.
At this point, most Americans can’t afford to fight that battle with China right now. Not after the 20% inflation in prices of the last three years.
Any isolation of China needs to be planned for with manufacturing deals elsewhere already in place.

I agree, but this is a campaign proposal, actual implementation would involve a more strategic approach. I mean look at what Biden is proposing and he has actual power, taxing unrealized capital gains would kill investment in the USA and put us into a recession immediately.
