The global supply chain has treated the U.S. like a doormat. Low labor costs abroad, high profits here—while our industries wither. Strategic tariffs say: we’re done playing that game. They create pain where it’s felt most—at the profit margins of foreign exporters who thought we’d never fight back.
This is a reset, not retaliation. It’s a calculated move to recalibrate terms that have been stacked against us for decades. You don’t fix unfair trade with trust falls. You do it with leverage, risk, and a strategy that says, “We’re not afraid to act.”
