If Donald Trump wins the election in November, then the USA will have a president who has vowed to impose tariffs on imports from China, and who has engaged in a bit of anti-china rhetoric which probably hasn’t gone over too well in Beijing. Assuming that Trump tried to introduce the tariffs and play hardball with China on trade, what do think the implications are for the American gaming companies in Macau – i.e would the Chinese government push back somehow and if so, how?

I’m aware that Macau is autonomous to a large degree, but I assume that the Chinese Central Government can bring pressure to bear on the territory if they really want to.

Just Curious
