Country shopping is alive and well under the current system. There’s literally NOTHING requiring them to stop trading with any country, or to prevent them from just moving to another one, verses actually repatriating. And the issue is not trade, as much as it is offshoring of our factories. Tariffs, alone, can possibly indirectly affect that, but nothing is being done to DIRECTLY stop offshoring. You appear to have no plan, other than to decry the generic word globalism, while simultaneously and hypocritically giving those actually responsible for it a free pass.

Tariffs promote domestic industry and raise revenue. The proof is the last 50 years of almost no tariffs at all. We got offshoring and deficits. Tariffs and the lack of tariffs cant do the same thing. One on shores and the other doesn’t. Get it? No you don’t. So don’t bother responding.
