Vice President Kamala Harris said former President Donald Trump’s proposal to institute sweeping tariffs on all imports of up to 20% is “a tax on everyday goods that you rely on to get through the month.”
What Harris failed to mention though is that under her watch, President Joe Biden has instituted hefty tariffs, predominantly on Chinese imports.
In May, the administration implemented new tariff rates on Chinese imports – ranging from 100% on electric vehicles to 50% for solar components to 25% for other sectors – that will roll out over the next two years.
Harris sought to defend such tariffs by saying Trump “invited trade wars.”
