Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries.
They're eventually paid by us at the check out line.
And they're regressive — taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

Peter Navarro, the guy who created a fake "expert" to advise Donald Trump on his tariffs:
"600, 700 billion dollars they're gonna to raise a year, $6 to $7 trillion over the 10 year period."
$6.5 trillion was wiped off the stock market in just two days, just to put that in perspective.
