The US trade more with the EU (both exports and imports) than with China, and it is fairly balanced. So actually this is the trade war nobody wants. On the other hand the US import a lot from China but export much less so they can hurt China more (but balanced with the fact that this would probably hurt US consumers more as well). Hence we've seen that the Chinese response to Trump has been minimal.
