The primary goal of mutual tariffs is not just to force nations to lower their tariffs, but to restore jobs to America rather than relying on foreign workers, according to Trump’s commerce secretary.

In a recent Fox News interview, Secretary of State Howard Lutnick addressed misunderstandings about levies. Lutnick, who recently stated that tariffs are crucial because various countries have imposed exorbitant tariffs on American goods without a mutual response since World War II, emphasized that tariffs also benefit American workers. According to him, the main objective of the great tariffs on some unusual goods is to provide more jobs back to America through manufacturing, mine, and thus.
” Canada is leaning on our business,” he says. Let’s face it, American trucks were once produced. Why did vehicles from Michigan relocate to Canada? According to Lutnick, who refers to the United Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implement Workers of America federation,” to break out of the UAW.” That’s only harsh to American employees and union members. Trump is finally standing up for British workers, after years of excessive government regulation and large corporations seeking cheaper labour or benefits abroad.
Lutnick once said,” Donald Trump has their up and is wondering why we are doing all this business in Canada if they’re no polite, if they’re no proud, and they don’t want to do it.”

Can you picture a provincial leader deciding they’re going to strike America and increase energy costs by 25 %, as Ontario’s leading really did, in the playful manner of Trump, who likes to call Canada the 51st position? What transpired? He picked up a session. We’ll speak and walk in. But what do you think will happen? What are you doing for us, President Trump [say ] say exactly as you should anticipate. I am aware of our actions, but what are you doing to us? And I believe that’s the best way to look at it, that’s our government’s way of looking at it, and that’s what you really anticipate.

Martha McCallum, a Fox anchor, yelled,” Why not just remove the taxes between Canada and the US? May we travel there in the future? Because it’s mind-boggling, like, 25 %, no, it’s going to be 50 %, no, we’re back to 25 %”. Lutnick made a quiet laugh. If you were Fox Canada, that would be correct.” No, no, no, no, no.” Fox Canada would like that.

For Our Guests: Karl Marx, the parents of the Holocaust, and Tyranny.
I recently heard President Trump say$ 200 million and that we send in aid, largely, to Canada, MacCallum responded. Will that be eliminated, then? Tell me what the starting positions are; I’m only — that’s what I want to know.
The starting point is, we care about America second, we care about American personnel first, and we want to take those jobs back to America, Lutnick remarked in a powerful statement. So we’re going to re-establish more and more work in America. We don’t want to import 60 % of Canadian aluminium. It needs to be introduced to America. We want to [transport ] the automobiles to America. We want to make America great second, and then Canada may be concerned.
