Kevin O’Leary Makes Violent Plea For Dealing With Chinese On Tariffs | EUROtoday
“Shark Tank” investor Kevin O’Leary mentioned Tuesday “it’s time to squeeze Chinese heads into the wall now!” as he proposed 400% tariffs on China. (Watch the video beneath.)
O’Leary mentioned he does enterprise in China and accused the Chinese of dishonest and stealing ― significantly in co-opting Western know-how and promoting it again to the West.
He mentioned he wished President Xi Jinping “on an airplane to Washington to level the playing field.”
“This is not about tariffs anymore,” he continued on CNN’s “Laura Coates Live.” “Nobody has taken on China yet. Not the Europeans. No administration for decades. As someone who actually does business there, I’ve had enough. I speak for millions of Americans who have [intellectual property] that have been stolen by the Chinese. I have nothing against the Chinese people. They brought great literacy, art and tech to the world. The government cheats and steals and finally an administration — you may not like Trump, you may not like his style or his rhetoric — finally, an administration that puts up and says ‘Enough! 400% tariffs tomorrow morning!’”
O’Leary emphasised America’s lofty standing in consumables and gross home product, then dropped his descriptive plea for Trump to make the Chinese authorities capitulate.
“America is the No. 1 economy on Earth with all the cards,” he mentioned. “We will not have that forever. It’s time to squeeze Chinese heads into the wall now!”
Heads could also be squeezed on either side as China raised its tariff on U.S. items to 84% Wednesday after Trump elevated U.S. levies on Chinese merchandise to 104%.
China will “fight to the end,” the nation’s Ministry of Commerce wrote.
