I'm all for it.
I'd happily slap a tariff on goods made in, say, California, as matter of protest against their policies.
I've had this argument many times here, you can go back and see my position has always been in favor of protective tariffs.
I've always been in favor of an across the board 30 percent tariff on everything Made in China.
