Tariffs were a way for the US to make trading with other countries fair to the US. For years we paid tariffs to other countries to buy their goods, but we never charged them tariffs in return. The EU, Canada and other countries were unfair in their trade practices with us, especially the EU.

Trump has renegotiated new trade deals with many countries and it has been a major money maker for the US. We've made almost $250B so far in tariff revenue and they haven't even been in effect for a year. $250B! Can you believe it?

I hope they use it to pay down the country's debt. That's a nice chunk of money that can really make a dent.
