To say Trump ran on a "protectionist policy" is so completely fundamentally dishonest. He said our trade agreements weren't fair. They weren't fair.
You just keep proving this is a hack partisan issue to you, nothing more. And you still don't give Trump credit for in the end lowering tariffs with China even though you claim all you care about is free trade.
You're a liar, and a bad one
He ran as being a protectionist. He increased tariffs and hurt farming and did a huge bailout we couldn’t afford. Then he lowered tariffs. So we are back where he started and had to do a huge bailout. That is good policy to you?
Actually he THREATENED to raise tariffs. He did very little increasing them. Then did a whole lot of decreasing of tariffs below where he started.
You just keep proving you're motivated by partisan hack politics and not free trade. Then you claim you don't just pull the blue lever every time, obviously you do.
And then there's this evolving standard that supporting tariffs is fine with you like Obama did as long as they don't run on that policy.
You're just flip flopping away over and over
