Well, it’s certainly a good thing that we haven’t been governed for the last 100 years by morons who think that high tariffs are a good idea.
You do understand that tariffs are just taxes by another name, right? And that they destroy trade, right?
If so, you also must also admit that Trump understands absolutely nothing about basic economics.
If he’s the nominee, we can only hope that someone gives him some better economic advice somewhere along the way.
By the way, the Founding Fathers instituted tariffs. The ones they instituted averaged about 15 percent.

Some trade you want, some trade you don't want. Tariffs should be used to protect American industries. Otherwise all our labor will go to countries like Vietnam where people get paid 140 dollars for the entire month.

You should give up your membership card to the Free Trade cult. It makes you look stupid when we compare your "basic economics" to reality.
AntiScumbag defends the socialist income tax in place for over 100 years. I’ll remember you.
If Trump understands nothing about economics then it was luck how he created his company and fortune. In the meantime I have to assume with your great knowledge of economics you have not fared as well.
“Free trade” destroyed our industries and jobs because it was not really free trade. We played one way and other countries played by their rules. The only winners were international corporations and financial related businesses. Combined with mergers in the US they all became too big to fail and the owners of the political establishment on both sides.
