new tariffs are designed to promote free markets? Stop reverting to that straw man, ummmm.

I've been abundantly clear that I believe they are imposed as a tactic and trump has been abundantly clear his goal is to get the EU, China, Canada, others to reduce Tariffs and he offered a zero tariff plan and the EU rejected it.

Nobody here is arguing tariffs promote free markets.

people are debating if it's a tactic, if it will work, etc. but please stop implying I think new tariffs promote markets.

They don't.
