Agree

No

Many Democrats believe in free trade and globalization, arguing that it can lead to economic growth and job creation. However, some Democrats also support targeted tariffs to protect specific industries or address unfair trade practices. For example, President Obama imposed tariffs on Chinese tires in 2009 to protect the American tire industry from a surge in Chinese imports.

Slightly agree

Yes, China should be punished for artificially manipulating their currency

Some Democrats support tariffs as a way to address China's currency manipulation, which can make Chinese exports cheaper and hurt American industries. However, this view is not universally held within the party, and many Democrats prefer to address currency manipulation through diplomacy and international institutions rather than tariffs. For example, during the Obama administration, the U.S. Treasury Department engaged in dialogue with China to address currency issues, rather than imposing tariffs.
