A commenter who knows what's going on hits it out of the park with one swat over at Owen's place.
...Since WW2 the U.S. Congress (both parties, by the way) has been
intentionally using lop-sided trade agreements and trade policy as an
unofficial means of effectively increasing unbudgeted and off-the-books
foreign aid....
A national "constitutionalist" radio-screamer views tariffs as "taxes" on US citizens. He doesn't tell you the reality voiced above: in fact, our "export US cash" system is just foreign aid by other means.
Trump gets it and like most of us, he's sick of it.
