Paul is so wrong on this. So Paul is ok with disproportionate tariffs against the US?

Trump is throwing tariffs back in the face of those abusing tariffs, to make them get rid of tariffs!

Rand is really STUPID and so are ALL who agree with him!

The threat of tariffs IS working and tariffs DID work well for us prior to 1913!

And since WW II, tariffs have worked against us, once the decimated European nations got back on their feet, and have been killing American economy for many decades now, because WE foolishly have very few of them, now.

He is so obviously owned right now, it’s pathetic.

Time for 2 new senators from Kentucky.

So I guess Rand disapproves of all the countries dropping their tariffs on the US.

I usually agree with most of Rand’s opinions, but what he wants, which I understand is a flat rate tax, is not going to be enacted, so tariffs are better than what we have now. It is my understanding that Trump wants tariffs to get us to where we can lower taxes.

Congress essentially delegated the authority to impose tariffs to the President via the Trade Act of 1974.

Did Senator Rand Paul complain about the tariffs Obama and Biden implemented on China?

When Republicans vote with commie RATS, especially when they stab President Trump in the back with their vote, they’ve sold their souls to the uni-party.

Difference between taxes and tariffs is choice!
I don’t have to buy products that have a tariff on them.
So I can regulate that expense.
Tax on a locally produced loaf of bread isn’t so easy to avoid.

Rand says: “tariffs are a tax”.
So...
What does he have to say about the tariffs
that other countries place on the U.S.?

An absolute waste of political capital.

RAND fails to explain his decade of silence against TAXES imposed on America by outside forces.

Total LOSER virtue signaling.

Some pro-tariff “counterpoints” to Sen. Paul:

https://youtu.be/c7gZDSEh5bI?si=htAeMVAHiZooDmgn

A podcast discussion with PDJT’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick...the tariff discussion starts at 52:21 into the interview:

https://youtu.be/182ckTL2KBA?si=jcuc6RbIxpw5hR-Z

I have mixed feeling...bringing back production/jobs to America is great..inflationary pressure and stock market/Wall Street unfounded angst before the Congressional mid-terms not so good....but like “government austerity measures” there is never a “good” time these days...PDJT just wants to do the right thing for the country and “damn the torpedos” I guess.

Avoid those taxes. Buy American. The product may cost a bit more, but will last longer than cheap crappy CCP merchandise.
