Almost everyone is saying, that's because China's surplus to the US is too large, so Trump must curb China's trade deficit through trade war to narrow the US trade deficit. Is that true?

What he's most concerned about is that when employees work for him, they learn his skills, take away his clients, and start their own business and go back to compete with him.
