Tariffs aren't necessarily bad. They can be a pretty effective tool to support local industries, or otherwise discourage imports. Or as a retalitory tool to negotiate with. But blanket tariffs against the whole world seems unhinged. Many of the products and materials we import have no domestic sources or limited domestic sourced that are not expandable. The us won't be able to grow domestic coffee to meet the domestic demand. Tariffing coffee import is just going to make morning routines slightly more expensive for many americans. There was a lot less pushback for specific industry tariffs or specific country tariffs during the last Trump administration. Steel tariffs and the trade war with China weren't necessarily liked by all, especially in the specifics, but tariff all the imports is terrible.
