Mark Levin ripped into Trump and his protectionist advisors today over the new steel and aluminum tariffs on our European, Mexican, and Canadian allies, calling them “absolutely outrageous”.
Listen below:
Here are few excerpts:
No the Canadians aren’t ripping us off. No the Mexicans aren’t ripping us off. No the European Union is not ripping us off. We buy these products is because we want them…
It does not help our American families, our communities in this country when we put a gratuitous massive tax of 25% on what we purchase in order to supposedly punish these other countries.
It’s not just Wilbur Ross and Navarro, it’s the president. He strongly believes in this stuff. It’s not ‘Make America First’ when you’re driving up the cost to American families!
He does smart things like cut taxes… He does smart things like cut regulations. And then he turns into Bernie Sanders when it comes to trade. I’m talking about trade with Allies!
I’ll tell you what else comes from this, inflation. People on pensions. People on Social Security. People on fixed incomes. Inflation is a killer. And we’ve had inflation under control now for probably the longest period in modern American history.
This was only a smidgen of what Levin said so be sure and listen to the audio above.
