if exports TO china FROM US was the bigger number.. guess what.. that means US is sending more to china.. in which case why is trump crying about deficits
if the US was sending more to china trump would be excited, happy and jumping around with joy

the countries individual rate is done using completely different stats and math based on the MFN vs non MFN rate and other vat's and fees stuff

It's not. You're the only one trying to invent this alternate reality. You haven't provided any proof from Trump or his minions that they used anything other than the idiotic deficit formula to come up with the tariffs.

YOU have not understood the formula is about the RECIPROCAL....
YOU think its about chinas tariff
and thats why YOU think its a idiotic formula because its not making sense to YOU

its not making sense to YOU because YOU think its about "china 67"..
when you take a break from the media clickbait agenda story of misinterpreting stuff.. and instead accept the RECIPROCAL CALCULATION PAGE EXPLAINER is about IS ABOUT RECIPROCAL

then you will understand its not about "CHINA 67"

nothing you provided proves it has anything to do with the countries tariff..(china67) even if you obsessively think it does to then after the obsession then say how the formula is dumb and idiotic becasue it then doesnt explain it

heck just read the title of the explainer.. it says reciprocal
the findings explains the long term 2
the findings explains  the 50% discount AKA 2:1  aka /2

also.. you need to learn about how the actual per country TARIFF is worked out by the mfn or non-mfn treatment based on pntr, preferential rate and VAT stuff all added together

if you cant even google mfn and pntr and look at how the pntr status affects if a country gets:
the mfn or non mfn rate
to refund VAT on wholesale
gets preferential other rate

then you still have much to learn before anyone can make you understand how the country tariff is calculated
but you should make a new topic if you want to discuss the "china 67" reasoning and ill correct you there
