As Navarro Ratchets Up Trade Rhetoric, Take A Minute To Meet Mr. ‘Death By China’
Peter Navarro needs no introduction, or maybe he does because as it turns out, a lot of Americans aren’t fully apprised of the extent to which America’s trade policy is now being dictated by a pseudo-academic whose claim to fame is “Death By China”, a documentary that features a Bowie knife with a yuan note wrapped around the handle literally stabbing America in the heart(land).Â
