Somebody has planted a seed in his mind that tariffs in the 19C were responsible for America’s rapid rise to world dominance and all he has to do is reintroduce tariffs and Bingo! America becomes top dog again. Manufacturing operations will rise phoenix-like from the ashes, millions of competent, experienced, technical and managerial staff will wake from their 40 year slumber to run said factories and supply lines and a couple of trillion dollars of finance will magically appear to enable this all.
