If I own a company in the U.S. that uses steel or aluminum in a manufacturing process, a tariff on steel and aluminum is a huge incentive for me to relocate my company to another country that does NOT impose this tariff.

You've perfectly described the 30-year lure of NAFTA/GATT/WTO and incidentally that relocated American company ceases to be an American company when it moves. You get that right?

Right. But there are plenty of companies headquartered in the U.S. with operations all over the world.
