> The idea would be that different parts of the supply chain would build factories in the US to avoid tariffs.
Right, because the US doesn't have diamonds, vanilla, coffee beans or the many other things it needs? How do you avoid tariffs like this?
The US still needs fish from the penguins. What's the plan? To tell penguins to stop fishing and come to the US and work in factories?
> The end goal would be 0% corporate and income taxes, funded with high tariffs.
Well you have that right. When there's 0% of the people working no 1 will be paying corporate and income tax. It'll just crash.
