I am no trained economist. However, I do have a lot of common sense and I worked as a private tutor for 34 years running around the NYC area and got quite close to the finances of my students parents because I helped all of them get merit based scholarships for their kids and in some cases need based scholarships and let me tell you the prime cause of US trade deficits is primarily based on most Americans not saving and just spending and spending their way into massive debt. Sure, China has abused intellectual property rights and has manipulated their currency to suit themselves. But at the end of the day, the US has grown and benefited in spite of all these trade deficits. Trump is just a sick, ignorant, vicious dude. And if Kudlow had his way, policies would be enacted to bring the Dow to 100K while Main Street would be bankrupt.
