I'm no fan of the administration but these tariffs are effective, if heavy-handed and seemingly obtuse, negotiation tactics. I'm not saying I agree with them or the method but there is method to the apparent madness.Hypocrisy knows zero bounds. Just make it all up as you go!

This is how Trump and the Republicans punish Americans - by raising prices for everything.
Trump will squeeze every last penny out of you!
