Original Note:
Contrary to what is implied here, foreign nations are unlikely to be the ones owed to tariffs. Rather, economists claim it is likely consumers, especially the poor. Plus, congress determines foreign trade regulations, POTUS does not withhold the power to impose them themself. https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/what-are-tariffs#chapter-title-0-6
