Actually, Trump has thrown out a number of justifications.


Theft of technology, requirements that US companies in China open up their proprietary systems, currency manipulations, etc.

I don't believe many Americans view China as a sympathetic victim. I do think Trump missed an oppty to focus on and internationally isolate China to an extent by not focusing his tariffs just on them. By making it worldwide, he has helped to isolate us, although the world really can't ignore us.
