President Trump formally abandoned the TPP right after he got sworn into office. He has decried, during his campaign, that he will put a 45% tariff on imports from China. China is the world’s largest exporter with the United States’ being its second largest trading partner after Canada. How should we look at the future of the U.S.-China trade ties in the Trump era?
