The big ones:

Commercial and military air craft

Advanced military equipment: think radar systems and high end defense systems.

The United States has some of the top tier when it comes to musical instruments

Most specialized industrial machinery is also made fairly exclusively in the United States.

and oddly enough, cast iron cookware also tends to be made exclusively here as well.

Everything we make they "want", the question is afford

I dont see the point in putting tariffs on complete shithole countries that can barely afford a coke. We import cocoa, coffee, bananas etc from said countries. Thats a natural trade deficit.

Canada, Europe, most of Asia, can afford to buy our goods. There is no reason massive trade deficits should exist with every country on Earth.

The US makes great cars, is one of the only two major airplane producers, is the pre-eminent food producer, and makes the highest quality consumer goods. American jewelry, clothes, furniture, household items etc are all second to none.

In order to MAGA, we need to be nation that builds in additions to services. Its sad to see great American brands such as Baker (which is still made in the US) be owned by Chinese companies.
