>Manufacturing goods is the root of an economy. China is the root, the US is a leaf.

Let's put your statement to the test then

Can China put tariffs on iPhones, Windows operating systems, Apple computers, Intel/AMD cpus, Nvidia GPUs?

Windows is pirated by everyone in China so a tarrif is useless. iPhones and apple computers are manufactured in China so YES they can put a tarriff on every freaking part of a mobile device/computer except for the GPUs and CPUs.
