    Tariffs do not work.

    Even if you just target one item, like this moron did with washing machines 8 years ago, what happened?

    Imported washing machines went up 25% in price.

    Domestically produces machines went up 25%, because why wouldn’t they gauge more money??

    Tariffs only hurt the consumer.
