You may argue that it is made in Vietnam, but if whoever has to tax it don't agree, your argument counts for nothing. The US taxation officials don't have to come up with a non-contestable argument for why it is a Chinese product, they just need an argument that their own courts will accept, that generally isn't a particularly high standard in a situation where the USA and China are locked in a trade war.

The final assembly place is $INSERT_COUNTRY. Now tell me, if the $INSERT_COUNTRY is Vietnam, how will the US government justify say this is not? because right now that $INSERT_COUNTRY is China and they're levying tax on that basis. You seem to grossly underestimate how interconnected the world is today.
