The CofC types would gladly sell American factory jobs down the river, while they import cheap crap from China to make profits off of.

Chamber of Commerce hits Trump on ‘weaponization of tariffs’ — and then Trump calls CNBC to fight back

Key Points

President Trump’s tariff strategy “creates uncertainty with our trading partners,” says a top official at the world’s largest business lobbying group.

Myron Brilliant, head of international affairs at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, contends that tariffs are the wrong approach with China and Mexico.

Reacting to Brillant’s interview, Trump calls in to CNBC to argue his case for why tariffs are effective. He also blasts the Chamber of Commerce.
