Kevin O’Leary Battles Rampell: We’re in an Economic War with China, Wake up and Smell the Roses

‘I was very specific... Mexico, Canada, Switzerland, France, these are our allies’

EXCERPT:

RAMPELL: "What do you think that does to the price of cars?"
O'LEARY: "There are other people make cars, by the way. The Germans make cars, the French make cars."
RAMPELL: "We're tariffing those, too."
O'LEARY: "No, the point is — "
PHILLIP: "Yeah, he wants to tariff those, too."
RAMPELL: "And the prices will go up. You are a businessman." 
O'LEARY: "I was very specific, I said, look, Mexico, Canada — "
RAMPELL: "If your competition gets more expensive, then what happens to your prices?"
O'LEARY: " — Switzerland, France, these are our allies and we have tiffs with them because they tariff us too. China, we are in an economic war with. If you don‘t understand that, you should wake up and smell the roses."
RAMPELL: "If you don‘t understand that your prescription will not get you the outcome you want — "
O'LEARY: "I guarantee you, let me handle China with 400% tariffs, the supreme leader will be right where you're sitting in 48 hours, working out a deal."
