Tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China are now in effect after these countries failed to adequately stem the flow of illegal immigrants and deadly fentanyl in the United States despite President Donald Trump’s repeated efforts to give them time to act. Never mind that Trump is the first president in decades to care about American safety and sovereignty because the same voices who stayed silent when the Biden administration’s inflation devastated Americans are now claiming tariffs will drive up costs and therefore Trump shouldn’t implement them.
But Americans should not be gaslit into having to choose between our sovereignty or low prices.
