So the idea that we're going to hurt all our trade partners, we're going to tax our own citizens so we can bring back the toaster jobs and the t-shirt jobs at the expense, that scares me. And again, I think alliances matter. I think trade partners matter.

It's like they're at the bottom of the ladder and they're trying to protect their small little industries as best they can, but they're not competitive in anything. So for me, this feels similar to the Jones Act where like it's a misguided attempt to protect American shipbuilding that ends up with Americans paying more for shipping.
