Idk by the looks of it the tariffs r going be full of loopholes so trump can appease the base without really doing shit. I bet everyone except china is gona get excluded from the tariffs

### REPLY:
Well here's the thing, China doesn't directly ship steel here. They go through mostly Mexico and Canada, and they're most likely shipping steel to be refined to those countries; moreover, they're mostly shipping refined steel or parts already unqualified to be considered 'steel,' meaning tariffs wouldn't be able to apply. The renegotiation of NAFTA is what would ultimately redefine whether the tariffs would be effective or not.
