The best next step:

China does nothing (keeps their tariffs)

That's very possible. Trump gave them excuse to do this. They already set up a deal with Korea and Japan (and each two hate each other), and if they would set up a trade deal with EU then the US will be the only loser.

Trump really hurt US with the tariffs on everyone (except Russia, North Korea and Belarus)

I hope. I'll miss my cheap goods but I have enough. I feel bad for young americans as cheap goods was one of the only perks left to living in this country.

Cheap gas I guess will be one of the last dominoes to fall. That, and the collapse of the petro-dollar system, will be the final nails in the coffin of our economy.
