With Donald Trump out of the country, one of his most prominent economic advisers is bashing him for costing America jobs. The U.S. president was recently in the UK, being feted with banquets and parades, while the effects of his trade war with the world are taking effect and that has alarmed Stephen Moore, long associated with Trump going back to his first stint as president. The source for this survey is Tom Boggioni's article: 'Makes no economic sense': Trump adviser flips on tariffs five months after praising them.
1. In a column for the Wall Street Journal, Moore lashed out at Trump's aluminum tariffs, explaining it is not only crippling job creation but that they make no "economic sense." "If left to stand, President Trump's June order to raise the tax on imported aluminum to 50% will almost certainly cost far more manufacturing jobs than it will save," he wrote late Wednesday. He went on to report that "Novelis alone is one of the world's largest producers of aluminum for cans of beer and soft drinks," and now a proposed $4.1 billion plant in Alabama is facing suspension and thousands of jobs may disappear. "The U.S. manufacturers hit by Mr. Trump's tariffs are frustrated. They provide good jobs to Americans yet are getting hammered. Many also compete directly with China—which will be the big winner of the aluminum tariffs. Mr. Trump promised that 'there are no tariffs if you manufacture or build your product in the United States.' That has proved utterly untrue," he accused.
