Ok. So when China wants to sell some lead-based crap in the US, then when they export it they also write a check (so to speak) to the treasury for 10% (or whatever the tariff is). Hence they pay for it!
Yeah. I’m not an economist, but I follow what this administration is doing and fully support it, and that must be how it works.
The real question is how long of a wall they can now afford due to the tariffs! Exciting stuff.
