To be fair, from a strictly economic perspective, you do want Chinese cars to compete with your domestic car production but you want to ensure fair competition. If China subsidizes its industry then you tariff the imports to protect American production but you want to avoid having too much protectionism without allowing competition or your domestic producers will stop innovating or improving because they're protected from competition. It's a delicate balance.
The problem is that chinks find ways to cheat and scam way faster than we move to counteract them. Your argument is much stronger wrt Europe and Japan, and even then I'm not sure I agree with it.
This is true but we don't need to be so slow on the uptake. We have the capability to be faster and more adaptable than the Chinese. It's time to dust off the old colonizer uniforms and actually start trying. Would help if we could get rid of the infestation in our home countries first ofc.

And they (the CCP) engages in corporate espionage against Western companies because they are the ultimate share holders of every Chinese company.
See Nortel/Huawei
We should of course be doing our own corporate espionage also.

You shouldn't be scared of a little competition. If they are shitcans, no one will buy them.
Chinese electric cars are better than Teslas. The US is owned by the jews. We have bigger problems.
