Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer on Sunday praised President Trump for slapping tariffs on $50 billion worth of Chinese products and said he urged the chief executive to do this “three weeks ago.”
“Not only do they steal our intellectual property, they keep our good companies out, and say the only way you’re going to be able to sell your American products in China… is if you come to China, make them there, and give us the techniques and intellectual property,” the New York lawmaker told John Catsimatidis on his AM-970 radio show.
The Senate minority leader said he urged Trump to hit China with the penalties because the US would eventually prevail in any trade war.
“It’s going to take a little bit of toughness at the beginning.
