Trump may be able to order US firms out of China but it will cost him politically, says business leader

to leave the world's second largest economy, but it would cost him politically, said a business leader on Tuesday.

"The U.S.-China economic relationship is very, very complicated. It affects a lot of companies and a lot of industries. Just to say 'okay, let's be done with it' is...a very simplistic way to approach it," he told CNBC's "If you're not confident that you understand the long-term intentions of the other side, then you're concerned about making commitments because you don't know where that's leading," Stratford added.

of course because corporate greed is at stake and they will do what ever it takes to keep it that way and will back anyone that will help them

As if Trump has ever worried about what would cost him politically. Are you kidding! He’s going to do what he thinks is best for America and the hell with politics. It what’s I love about our President. 💪👏👍

Concerns me that our electronic companies are in bed with the Chinese government all for profit. That build our computers, steel the technology and use it militarily against us and our political elites and companies turn a blind eye!!!

The tuff part is IT security. Reasons to believe there is Bluetooth virus that could be used to farm data on everyone. Not sure who wrote it, personally I don't really care. Trying to secure my own toys might've pushed me high in NSAGov or lockheedMartin casting for plays list.

'Beijing is trying to figure out the 'real intentions' of the U.S.' Is that a bad thing? They won't bend if they lacked fear! Trump isn't going to make companies leave China, but uncertainty will make them consider alternatives, all positive for the US.

Wrong!!!

That’s why is was elected to begin with and he knows that... no politician would have taken this on except Trump Should be a landslide in 2020 for realDonaldTrump

Did Trump actually go to Wharton? He must have had bone spurs when they taught about Global Trade.

And is pure socialism

LOL...It will not cost him at all

Even if Trump had done nothing, China was closing down to the outside. The Plan, China 2025 starts with all electronic gear being made by China under their brand. The strong dollar is providing a window to move, don't waste it. tt: Varneyco Larry_Kudlow

The People's Republic of China government is money first. Human life is second. No one knows human rights. The death penalty seems to be about 1000 to 2000 people per year in mainland China.Hong Kong and Macau, which were colonies of England and Portugal, have no death penalty.

Please Stop Xi Jinping. Please Stop the People's Republic of China. There are no truth in what this government says.

Boycott the People's Republic of China.They are murderous nation. 1989.6.4 Tiananmen Incident, It is very dangerous to see the video of Tiananmen Incident. This country's army murdered own country's People. Boycott the People's Republic of China!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump was just twittering. Trump was just blathering. If it would hurt his quickly fading Election chances, President Trump will do NOTHING.

Whatever it takes to get that lunatic out of office. He is dangerous.

Are you really going to pay the increased costs? Yeah, thought not. Idiots.

Don't bang on about climate change then go out and support Chinese unregulated manufacturing. Can't have both. At least be somewhat self invested an buy American made not Cheap labor high polluting products.

Trump is elevating his superiority rather than working for the good of human kind in the US and the entire world

Too many industries in China. Some already moved Vietnam and some others already anyway. I wanna wear made in US Levi’s or Mexico better than made in China or Korea. It’s definitely gonna help border prob between Mexico as well if Mexican employment rate and economy be fixed.

Blah blah blah cnbc fake news blah blah blah

American workers & Unions should support this 100%!

People who vote for Donny won't care, unless it starts to really hurt the wallet. It's the Economy stupid.

We'll happy to help him to move KFC,McDonald,Starbucks,Coca-Cola…etc.out of China😂😂

😂😂😂

Trump always wants to show the world how stupid he can be each day. People aren't sure that he knows his stupidity.

Who cares? Honestly? Are you blind to what's going on in HongKong? Completely oblivious, perhaps? Company's there should be seeking refugee status stateside. China is creating a mess of what should be a stable HongKong all by not following UKGovWales lead!
