> It’s my understanding that generally country don’t lower tariffs voluntarily. They are usually bargaining chips.

Tariffs are a tax. Tax on us, the people buying goods.

It's a massive tax increase. People are slowly waking up to that fact.

Rolling back the tariffs is giving everyone a tax cut. Well, tax cut back to baseline of what everyone expected.

As people realize that they are the ones paying the tariffs, this is going to be very unpopular.
