Where do I say tariffs are bad?
The point is that Trump said HE WILL IMPOSE a tariff to affect Ford. A tariff is a tax and no president has the authority to ‘impose’ one without congress. Trump may have not meant it literally, but it’s disconcerting nonetheless.
That is the simple, original reason I said he sounds a little like Obama who we know would like nothing better to be dictator of the world.
Check around the Internet...it seems to me that Presidents have a certain leeway in imposing or lowering tariffs. So Donald Trump would not be doing anything new if he jacked up tariffs on China and Mexico.
