The U.S. government began investigating China’s dominance in the shipbuilding industry, where it manufactures as much as 75%-80% of fleets, during the Biden administration.

Steep levies on Chinese-made ships arriving at U.S. ports have been proposed, up to as much as $1.5 million, as part of a plan to bring more ship manufacturing back to the U.S., a policy which has bipartisan support.

    Did he consider putting tariffs on winds blowing from China’s direction? Should probably also deport everyone who speaks Chinese or ever saw a Chinese movie or read a book (doesn’t have to be Chinese, any book at this point might be dangerous for those morons).
