Tariff charges are paid by the importer, not the exporter. Adding huge tariffs to Chinese manufactured goods can only hurt American companies who rely on Chinese engineering and manufacturing expertise.
This is a charge that American companies will have to pay and it is the people of the US who will foot the bill for additional costs.
It wouldn't matter who pays the tariff, the price would go up regardless.
