So why doesnt trump just raise taxes to result in a budget surplus? Easier and fairer than tariffs which are a tax on Americans anyway. trump should just raise taxes and we would have the problem solved.
Looks so far that big business is absorbing most of the tariff costs Democrats should love this...finally the rich are paying their fair share
