Does Trump not know what a tariff is? Or does he know, and he is deliberately misleading his followers?

[-] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 4 points 2 hours ago

He likely understands what a tariff is well enough. His problem is that he either doesn't understand the implications or chooses not to communicate that part to voters.

Trump understands tariffs, as far as they sound fancy and like a threat to foreigners, his followers understands it even less. Using fancy words make you sound authoritative. Trump's followers like authoritarian leaders.

Trump couldn't even spell tariff let alone define it.
