Original Note:
Important context for the video: WH Press Secretary Leavitt is incorrect here. Tariffs are not a tax hike on foreign countries. Tariffs are paid by the importer, and the burden of the tariff has been found to be mostly passed on to the consumer in the form of higher prices. https://taxfoundation.org/blog/who-pays-tariffs/
