For the record, the previous round of agricultural tariffs also didn’t “work” and cost us global export market share we will never get back, but do you actually not understand how raising tariffs* from ~20% on China and ~3% on the rest of the world to 124% on China and 10%+ on the rest of the world represent not only a fundamental change in strategy and a huge break from 80 years of unbroken bipartisan national policy?

Brother you’re on an island with Tommy Tuberville, MarkWayne Mullin and Stephen Miller. You’re not in a position to lecture anybody about “transparent politics,” but it must be tough on the spine, carrying that much water on just one side.
*again, also pretty dumb outside of those few categories where we need to maintain strategic capacity and China is subsidizing low prices with the express intent of disrupting American production.
