US imposed tariffs on some Chinese imports a week ago to the value of $3 billion, China responded in kind. Then the Yanks upped the ante by slapping $50 billion worth of tariffs on a wide raft of Chinese imports, China once again responded in kind. Now it seems Trump is seeking to find another $100 billion of Chinese stuff to place tariffs on. China wouldn't be able to reciprocate that same amount because the total value of all their US imports amount to $130 billion.
