I would agree if both sides in trade participated in free trade. Other countries tariff our exports while we do very little which puts us at a disadvantage.

We should seek trade deals where both sides participate in tariff free trade but we also shouldn't refrain from imposing tariffs when other countries don't play by the rules.

That is BS.

We literally impose tens of thousands tariffs today.
