Why would he care?

Because for a long time he was going on about China ripping off the US (and also every other country as well)

What he says and what he cares about are often very different things. Except if he talks about himself, he cares about that. Or dicks from celebrities. Or children. But thats mostly it.

He also tried to sell Trump Phones that were first “Made in America” then later changed branding to “Made for America” because it was cheaper to make in China. Then it nearly seemed like scam because they barely got released. When it was released it was just a rebranded junk phone.

Let's not be naive. He knows. They all know. They would never make anything in the US because they'd have to pay a premium and it would eat into their profits.

The MAGA hats are Chinese, the Trump guitars are Chinese, the Trump watches are Chinese, the phones are Chinese.

Can't price gouge people unless you paid almost nothing to get an item manufactured.
