Tariffs can help protect American businesses by encouraging local production and preserving jobs. However, they also raise the cost of imported goods, which forces stores to pass on these expenses to consumers. We might face higher bills, fewer jobs, and slower economic growth.

Retirement income hasn't risen to meet rising prices. How are we supposed to compensate?

What do we really need from Mexico? Definitely less illegal immigrants, and that is being worked on. Their shoddy autos? Make them at plants in the US. And Canada, and their petroleum? That's why its drill, baby drill...which should have been U.S. policy for past 50 years.

We had the Biden tariff for 4 years. Can't get worse than his incompetence.

No effect of the United States

If anything occurs, the effect will be temporary until the markets adjust. Funny KMIZ didn't have similar pols under Biden's double-digit inflation. Where was the media's outrage then? I know, orange man bad.

Mike Pyrtle

We are only in this mess because of former presidents from BOTH parties. Sometimes healing is painful.

They all should be given compensation and restitution for having their lives destroyed, many jailed without even a trial. Unfortunately, the money (millions) to do this has already went to the criminal Biden family on behalf of donations to Ukraine, via the taxpayers.

YEP!!!!!!! SURE DO, DIDN'T SEE ANY ANTIFA OR BLM ARRESTED DURING THE SUMMER OF 2020 PROTESTERS EVER DID YOU?????

Max DeYoung

Some of them had been imprisoned for four years, and had not even had a trial. Political witch trials supreme.

Because as the old saying goes you commit a crime you do the time. The only reason that they're getting off is because their president is a criminal as well and he's blind and he got away with the crime as well

Rosalind Smith

Those people committed crimes because of his urging. People were hurt and died.

Kevin Reed

It's impossible to "back the blue" while pardoning the boorish behavior of these individuals.

Linda Swiney

Àny person who entered the capitol during that riot is guilty of trespass and property destruction. Anyone who attacked law enforcement officers is guilty of assault on an officer. To blanket pardon these people is a slap in the face to the rule of law.

Candice Kundert

Absolutely not. Law enforcement officers were badly injured and some murdered. In many committed suicide after the incident. The video speak for themselves of the horror that they created on that day.
