Trump and the army that now surrounds him is saving us from default, depression and destruction. You should be thankful

Stick to climate change.

Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act
So, you are comparing tariffs in this era with Smoot-Hawley, 100 years ago, in an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT trade and manufacturing environment. Do you think that is a meaningful comparison and if so, on what basis?

Literally nothing about international trade, except for the fact it is trade and it is international, is the same. Economies are different, transportation is different, systems are different, manufacturing is radically different, payments and shipping are radically changed, and even the food items are different. Certainly, the nonfood goods are different.

Couldn't you come up with something more applicable? If not, I'm afraid your argument falls flat.
