Agree with the decoupling, but based on what happened during his last term, tariff doesn’t seem to work for decoupling right?

As you said, China just shifted their manufacturing to southeast asia and many of them are still backed by Chinese money. Also the made in US thing didn’t really happen either.

In the latter case the US just enacted high tariffs on those countries as well. Regarding made in US, well, Apple products for example were exempted from the tariffs. This time they aren't.
