Look we can't keep not taxing imports as much as others tax our exports, it's economic suicide and seriously increases the trade deficit.
They use those tariffs to subsidize their own industries to undercut ours. We already are in an economic war and we are losing it in a horrible way.
Tariffs are the only way we can level the playing field, if we start at a disadvantage we may as well just surrender and admit the defeat we face.
