Some free trade commentators are skeptical that the tariffs are DOA when a D takes office

I’m no expert, but from what I’ve seen, trade deals aren’t changed that often. Businesses and governments typically rely upon the consistency of trade policy.

Only way to get rid of these tariffs is to cut spending (politically unpopular to cut programs), raise taxes (politically unpopular), or continue running up the deficit.

Biden didn’t immediately roll back what Trump did in his first term.

The bigger threat is if the next administration isn’t as proactive with hiking tariffs when our trade partners do the same. When they learn they can take advantage…they will.

I saw that article yesterday and he's right. Once a tax is in place, it's there forever. The Dems will view the tariffs as a fund for worthless social programs.
