Sen. Richard Blumenthal says the U.S. needs to be tough on China but he is concerned about the way President Trump is going about it.
The United States needs to be tough on China during trade negotiations — but the way President Donald Trump is going about it is worrying, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., told CNBC on Thursday.
"The kind of gamesmanship that we're playing right now really worries me. I don't see the end game here in terms of the tit-for-tat the president is playing with the Chinese," Blumenthal, who sits on the Judiciary Committee, said on"Squawk Alley." However, the president has suggested the administration may reverse the decision, depending on how negotiations go. China's Vice Premier Liu He is set to dine with Trump's trade team Thursday evening, just a few hours before the deadline.However, he also said,"Our alternative is an excellent one."
