Trump says additional $267 billion in anti-China tariffs likely

Days before he is set to meet with China’s president to talk about trade, President Trump said he is likely to go ahead with placing tariffs on an additional $267 billion in Chinese goods.

“If we don’t make a deal, then I’m going to put the $267 billion additional on,” Trump told the Wall Street Journal in an interview Monday. He said he hadn’t decided whether those tariffs would be 10 or 25 percent. “I mean, I can make it 10 percent, and people could stand that very easily.”
