Tariffs UP.

Income Taxes DOWN.
Property Taxes DOWN.
Sales Taxes DOWN.
Toll Roads DOWN.

High Tariffs ease pressure on domestic taxes.
This is the SOLE BENEFIT of Tariffs.

Free Trade is NOT a two way street.

A free country, U.S., CANNOT trade freely with a SLAVE State. Otherwise, you also become a slave.

Print your tee shirts in your shop right next to a slave tee shirt shop. What happens to your business? It dies. You die.

Slaves makes poor quality junk. Period.

American slaves excelled at agricultural production.

At every plantation there were skilled carpenters at work producing all sorts of things made from wood. There is evidence that a Maryland slave designed and produced a very special wheel chair for the mistress of the house.

and on an on

Yep. I’m more concerned with the never ending flood of cheap labor via H1b visas and similar programs. But allowing China and others to screw us over on trade deals for political reasons (to show “leadership” or to encourage China to become more capitalist and free) is a fool’s errand. Others just take advantage of us and screw over the American worker. We’ve long since had enough.

I think that is Trump's ultimate goal.
He raises our tariffs to make the Chinese lower or eliminate their tariffs and other obstacles.
