Does Kamala Harris support the Biden tariffs? former9thward Sep 2024 #9

Shocking, but maybe Trump actually had a good specific trade target that made sense? OAITW r.2.0 Sep 2024 #56

All presidents since Washington have imposed tariffs. former9thward Sep 2024 #60

Those above-referenced "tariffs" which Harris and Biden support have almost zero impact on U.S. GDP. Tarzanrock Sep 2024 #18
