Dubya did this back in 2002
It was a disaster
The WTO threatened a 2 billion fine
The European Union threatened to put tariffs on exports from key Republican states because the tariff was supposed to help the rust belt - they were going to put tariffs on Florida oranges, Michigan cars, etc
Later analysis found that Dubyas steel tariff COST JOBS
HOW DOES NOBODY REMMEBER THIS IT WAS ONLY 15 YEARS AGO?!
If you want to help steel - build some goddamn railways!
And whats more, mandate the rolling stock be AMERICAN MADE
Reopen all those closing down autoplants, retool the lines, put their workers back to work
