Wouldn't this only affect goods manufactured in the USA? If a finished product containing chips from say, Europe, were to land on USA shores it would only have a 15% tariff right?

Why does trump hate American manufacturing?

Huh? No, it's the opposite. You should really look up how tariffs work. They drive up prices for goods manufactured outside the US. Local goods are unaffected, giving them a competitive advantage.

I feel like there must be a miscommunication/misunderstanding here.

No, they’re trolling. There’s zero chance this was explained this many times and they’re still fighting like they don’t understand what is being said

"Trolling" = discussing facts? You are the one who doesn't understand. It's very simple: US tariffs do not apply to US products.
