It’s been one year since the illegal Trump tariffs were put in place. Almost everything you buy is more expensive now. There are less manufacturing jobs in the US now than there were a year ago. There are less factories in the US now. You didn’t get a Tariff rebate check. Other countries have started making trade deals between each other and avoiding US goods.

Feeling liberated yet?

    There was an easy way to know these tariffs weren’t going to increase domestic manufacturing. These tariffs had no exceptions for manufacturing equipment. We can’t make the things that make things anymore. It all comes from other countries. When there was no exception to get around that problem there was no way companies were going to invest in a 5 year plan to make a factory that cost more than it should.
