The tariffs are his best idea, we have plenty of stuff of all sorts but people lack the meaning of a job and feeling important for society.

For example during the pandemic the healthcare workers felt scared, tired, overworked, underpaid...but one thing they didn't feel was irrelevant and unimportant.

Time for steel workers, coal workers etc. to feel the same.

It's also time to admit that more stuff won't make us happier.

Protectionism has always existed and for a reason, it will never become obsolete as long as people need to feel important. And on the other hand free trade will never become obsolete, as long as people love stuff at a convenient price. It's all about finding a balance according to the historic moment.

Free trade has overextended itself and people now want less stuff and more meaning. That's why they came out in droves for Trump
