This whole fearmongering messaging isn't working - and there has been zero proof of it really hindering us.
In fact - the only news I've heard related to tariffs hurting us, has been China's retaliatory tariffs hurting our farming sector.

Tariffs Are Costing Jobs: A Look At How Many

It has turned into the joke Ronald Reagan used to tell: “Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.” This accurately describes Donald Trump’s trade policy: After farmers lost sales when other countries retaliated against U.S. tariffs and trade regulation, the administration’s solution was to subsidize farmers with $12 billion in aid.
