The tariff would raise the price of imports from the country to which it is applied but would yield substantial tariff revenues that would more than compensate for the high prices.

Tell that to the consumers who are paying it.

Trump plans to build a wall to keep out illegal immigrants and plans to deport illegal immigrants, which would open many jobs to unemployed Americans. This would increase the opportunities for unemployed and under-employed Americans.

The jobs that most illegals perform are low-skill, minimum wage jobs. Trump also wants to reduce the minimum wage. So it's hard to see exactly how it will improve the conditions for unemployed and under-employed. Companies could do that now my merely raising the salary they're willing to pay.
