The January 2018 washer tariff cost Americans $XXXXXXX for each new job created, yet the admin calls this "getting it right." This isn't economic policy; it's a masterclass in making consumers pay for political talking points.

The admin's rationale shifts with the political winds. On March 6, 2025, it was fentanyl, despite Canada accounting for just XX lbs of seizures vs. Mexico's XXXXXX. This follows Trump's false Dec 2024 claim that past presidents collected "10 cents" from China, ignoring the $12B collected in Obama's last year.

Getting it "right" means forcing Americans to subsidize failure, while selling them the invoice as a victory receipt.
