I mean, both sides do implement protectionist laws.

Did we already forget about Biden raising tariffs on Chinese EVs to protect the auto industry & unions?

I’m not sure you’re looking at things quite fairly.

The fact that you're likening a sparing few narrowly targeted tarrifs to capriciously applied illegal global tarrifs suggests you're not quite looking at things fairly.

  • What? What are you talking about?

    I’m clearly likening it to the subject of this thread: using government to create protectionist policies.

    100% tariffs on Chinese EVs is a protectionist policy by Biden. Banning Chinese AI would be a protectionist policy from Trump.

    Where did you get confused?
