Yes, most. In WA state this last election cycle we had ads running for candidates against conservatives specifically re: tariffs. What they were saying … tariffs cause retaliatory tariffs that kill WA state jobs, specifically, Apple exports, and that once those customers find new suppliers those markets may never come back. Personally, I would counter that the world apple supply is a zero sum game, at least in the short term (it takes a long time to mature apple trees), and if China finds new suppliers, then that means new markets would open, and WA apple growers would still have a market … it would just be a different market.

Yes, there is a lot of disingenuous BS on the anti tariff side. The globalists act like an import tariff is the end, it is only the beginning.
