That's a pretty minor tariff and response compared to this.

And remember, he didn't just do this, he bragged about it and campaigned on it.

I won't click the link LOL. But yeah, pretty silly. At least, silly in the way things in politics used to be silly and worth a blog post. There's a weird intersection of the right and the left that likes these policies. I think congresspeople are generally supportive of tariffs that help their district/state, and less supportive of others, which is why we need a president to see beyond that.. But yeah, there's enough analysis out there to show tariffs are generally not worthwhile, unless someone is being a truly bad actor.
