Tariffs are defacto taxes on the American consumer.
Yes.
And it's probably the most fair tax of all taxes.
In fact noted conservatives would rather a 23% consumer tax in lieu of income taxes and they call it the Fair Tax.

It's only fair in the sense that the bottom 50% actually have to pay something

Yes, because it's not selective. It doesn't give DC the power to do their little social engineering projects, give some consumers breaks while punishing others, reward selected industries while throwing the others to the wolves.
Tariffs are not universal, they're selected by the people in DC that you claim not to trust. They're tailor-made to give DC more power.
