What in God's name are you gibbering about? TARIFFS. ARE. BAD! ORANGE. HITLER. IS A MORON! Which part of this is going over your pointed head? Try to grasp a simple idea: Trade is GOOD; Protectionism is BAD! There is no such thing "trade imbalance." You and Orange Hitler and the imbecile Navarro desperately need some remedial Economics...
To review: "Trade creates wealth, and anything -- like tariffs -- that interferes with trade destroys wealth..." Orange Hitler is a doddering imbecile who clearly has no idea what he is doing...
So, no, he is not correct.
As Benjamin Franklin said: "No nation was ever ruined by trade." Throughout history, the wealthiest nations and empires were those that grew up on the trade routes... Trade creates wealth, and anything -- like tariffs -- that interferes with trade destroys wealth... It's not complicated.
