I guess I must not be American because I DO care about it. It's also not mutually exclusive, you can also be critical of other countries. And to boil down this argument and say that it's about rich people wanting to get richer is a simplistic view of the world. The Chinese simply do not care about the US and have not been trading with the US in good faith and so have been working against the interest of the American people leeching of our innovation while holding us in contempt. The bottom line is that China got unfathomable wealthy after Nixon opened the flood gates of commerce and allowed the United States manufacturing to be looted by greedy American interest and the Chinese. To say the trade war benefits the wealthy is wrong, corporations will do any amoral thing they can to make a dollar and that's why sanctions and trade restrictions had to be put in place. Not the other way around.
I dunno. Something tells me you chomp at the bit to say 'china bad' but routinely ignore any opportunity to say other nations are worse that the US trades with.
