Only about 9% of Americans polled support Trump's tariffs, and it's unclear from that poll if they even understand what tariffs are or that they are the weapons in a trade war.

What is clear is that the majority of Americans don't want tariffs or a trade war, and if they were willing to torch our democracy electing Trump over the price of eggs what will they do when the price of everything skyrockets?

The power to impose tariffs, to cause so much economic and international relations chaos, needs to be taken away from the president. No one person should have that kind of power no matter who they are or what office they hold. IMO it's a power that should only be in the hands of Congress.
