In the form of tariffs. A 20% across-the-board tariff? That's nothing more than a consumption tax.
And contrary to what some might believe, other countries don't pay it unless the people from those countries come here to shop.
We'll pay it. About $4 trillion.
Depends on who wins next month. The president has the authority in most cases to enact tariffs without congressional approval.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
