what you not see is that MANY (if not most) of these goods imported are parts, chips and other stuff what is NECESSARY fro this production.

as you see in your own statistics it is not that the world need US goods urgently but US need to import this goods to compete with their own products on the local AND the international market.

you can not make a country responsable if their products are more wanted in another country as other way round.
this is a free market and china is the BIGGEST importer from USA too.

out of that MANY american companies are invested in china.
what do you think will happen to them when trump starts a trading war?

there CAN only be one big looser and this will not be china.

but let´s see what will happen. maybe this idiot does that too. same as he want to cancel the nuke contract with iran and sanction them. and then WHAT ?
there will be a second NK - that´s all what will happen.
