St George is a small city about two hours from here. Another small home grown business screwed by Trump's tariff scheme. Harming American businesses is not America first. It's reckless policy.
"We were trying to figure out first whether it was real. Do all these tariffs apply to us or are we missing something?" said Braxten Wilding, the company's vice president of finance.
