Thank you! This is the first time I have read ANYONE get to the real point of Trump's tariff agenda which is his personal power and exercising transactional dominance over countries and American corporations to do things entirely unrelated to matters of trade policy.

There is one more reason that I believe Trump favors a tariff system. It shifts the burden of funding the government from businesses to consumers without calling it a tax. Or at least that’s what he would like us to believe. I’m still waiting for Mexico to pay for the wall.
