FILE - In this Friday, Feb. 17, 2017, file photo, U.S. President Donald Trump speaks in front of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner while visiting the Boeing South Carolina facility in North Charleston, S.C. Trump’s push to get Americans to embrace goods “Made in USA” is harder than it looks. Few products are American-made only. Trump himself signs laws with gold-plated pens assembled in Rhode Island but lacquered and engraved in China. He praises U.S. industrial might in front of a Boeing jet whose parts are 30 percent foreign-made. And there’s a good reason why this is the case: U.S. manufacturers rely on global supply chains and Americans buy foreign goods because they prefer lower prices. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh, File)

FILE - In this Saturday, July 8, 2017, file photo, U.S. President Donald Trump, left, and Chinese President Xi Jinping arrive for a meeting on the sidelines of the G-20 Summit in Hamburg, Germany. After a cordial meeting between Trump and Xi in April 2017, tensions are simmering again between the world’s two biggest economies. As U.S. and Chinese economic officials prepare to meet Wednesday, July 19, in Washington, the U.S. is weighing whether to slap tariffs on steel imports and risk setting off a trade war, a dicey option to deal with a problem caused largely by China’s massive overproduction of steel.
