“The biggest risk of doing business in China is not related to tariffs, but rather personally related to President Trump’s irritation through his Chinese exposure,” the expert explained. “The president has not given priority to lowering exposure to China, but many of his senior advisers and cabinet members want American companies to reduce their exposure in China.”
