Running bilateral trade surplus/deficits with different countries is the way it should be. Trying to eliminate each one is simply stupid.
I have a trade deficit with my grocer, a trade surplus with my employer. I am not sure it would be a great idea for me to work for my grocer. (Even if the loss for the economic profession was minimal, I am not very good at packing groceries.)
Same thing with countries. There are reasons why we sell more to one, buy more from another. Different tariff rates across countries imply reshuffling of deficits and surpluses across countries, but no obvious change in the overall trade deficit.
To go back to the economist’s mantra (and the power of identities): If you want to reduce the overall trade deficit, increase saving (you might consider decreasing the budget deficit?) or decrease investment.

Trump’s attack on US institutions, even if fully expected, is dispiriting, discombobulating and dangerous.
In this very difficult time, we have to remember one thing: This is not normal, and it should not be normalized.
If, as I hope, the US democracy survives and (somehow) recovers, then history books will judge those working with Trump and Republican lawmakers in the Senate and Congress enabling him harshly (and so should we). If US democracy does not survive, I don’t know what history books will be like.
The single most important article yet published on Trump's second term, by two scholars who since 2016 have been consistently correct in anticipating Trump's effect on our political system. Everyone should read it.
