And then tell the public that the inflation fee would be paid by someone else.

And if he thinks tariffs are wonderful, why is identifying them hostile?

I agree that if he calls them Trump tariffs it might be political. But I'm guessing he's not that dumb. But there is nothing political about labeling them tariffs, or even US tariffs.
