    I’m actually curious what they even import from the US that they can’t find elsewhere or make themselves.
    I’m wearing NB bought in a NB shop in Wuhan at European prices and they’re… made in Indonesia. I’m guessing it’s gonna be some really unique luxury shit like alcohol? Or cars? So nothing that’s gonna affect Chinese people significantly, except perhaps to send them shopping in the EU and reinforce the Belt and Road and the railway connection with Europe (well, if Putin doesn’t fuck things up. That’s another story)
