It means that in the eyes of some, tariffs are bad but somehow a carbon tax on the very same goods is good. But obviously in the first case the money is paid into the US treasury and in the second case its paid to some nebulous UN agency.
To be explicit I favor tariffs that encourage US manufacturing, for me the re-industrialization of this country is a high priority. And carbon taxes are a terrible idea, mostly fraud and money laundering.
