Tariffs only help the United States and Americans. There is not now, nor has there ever been a downside to tariffs. Foreign countries simply pay for the privelege of doing business with us, and it stops right there.

I don’t like the implication of your statement, as it’s critical of the nominee’s stated policies. The negative Trump bashing has got to stop.

Except the Americans who pay more.

Foreign countries don't pay more, Americans do.
