        To date, it hasn’t been the president’s fault. The shit they do makes it’s way to workers and consumers well after they leave office, for the most part. This would be different, and in some cases very uneven - if there’s an accross-the-board 25% tariff with Canada, the Detroit auto industry basically shuts down and lays everyone off today.
