The Trump admin's "AMERICAN FARMERS FIRST" tomato tariffs are economic friendly fire—Florida families now pay XX% more for salsa while XXXXXX U.S. jobs hang in the balance. Last week’s XX% duty on Mexican imports isn’t protectionism—it’s self-sabotage disguised as patriotism.  

Mexican tomatoes account for XX% of U.S. supply, generating $8.3B in economic activity annually. Your $300M consumer tax hike will:  
• Force 16,996+ new hectares of domestic farming (6x DC’s landmass)  
• Risk X% demand collapse per ASU studies  
• Gut supply chains supporting XXXXXX jobs (Texas A&M 2025 data)  
Trump’s casino economics—bankrupting viable systems to chase protectionist mirages—now poisons trade policy.  

Washington burns American wallets to fuel its tariff theater.
