We must have steel and aluminum manufacturing to defend our country in time of war. Wars always come.

Every industry makes the same special pleading.

Subsidize farmers because troops need food.

Subsidize oil because tanks use gas, etc.

Are you telling me the you support tariffs only for these two metals and nothing else?

Do research. An aluminum pot line can take 6 months to restart after it’s shut down. That’s why countries dump metals in America. Once a steel mill shuts, it stays shut.
