Trump aides prep new tariffs on imports worth trillions for ‘Liberation Day’

The announced Liberation Day is the day after April Fool's day except this seems real, an escalation of tariffs on specific goods originating from specific countries. An already complicated Harmonized Tariff Schedule will now become impossible if tariffs are to be imposed by commodity and country of origin.

But the administration feels that,

Quote:
“Although the final reciprocal tariff plan for April 2 has yet to be unveiled by President Trump, every member of the Trump administration is aligned on finally leveling the playing field for American industries and workers,” spokesman Kush Desai said in a statement. “President Trump has assembled the best and brightest trade team in modern American history to reignite American Greatness, and they are hard at work following the same playbook.”
So its not only the money but also our greatness at stake here.
Of course we all know that this is about finding easy money for the tax cuts and nothing else.
