    They’re still peddling that other countries pay tariffs, which becomes “US revenue”, and Americans will get a big tax break because importers pay our taxes now.

    Yep.

      I heard that Canadians are paying for billboards saying “tariffs are taxes on your groceries” in Republican states. It’s funny as hell, but it won’t work—people are either too uneducated to understand how higher import costs lead to higher downstream costs, or they’re too MAGA to even consider it.
