I agree with the above two posts -- VOTE!
And right now is the time to check your registration with your local (county) Board of Elections. Don't want to arrive at the polls and find out you're not registered!

We can vote but why would I expect Trump to change this? By no means am I suggesting who I might be voting for but simply pointing out that it is very likely that the candidate that I plan to vote for is generally in favor of tariff's to promote US manufacturing.
I expect that I will continue voting for candidates that truly promote a healthy change towards more US manufacturing.
FWIW, Obama signed this into law shortly before he left office. Also, the Republican party controlled both houses of Congress at that time.

Obama signed the bill in 2015. It raised the import tariff from 200 to 800. Trump considered raising tariffs again, but left it in place as it was. Trumps advisors suggested he not raise it again due to causing increased pricing beyond what he was OK with. Biden did not change it and also left it in place.We can vote but why would I expect Trump to change this?

Now, if blame is desired to be cast, to whom do we blame? Both sides of the aisle were party to this.
The point was to bolster domestic production and curtail foreign importation to the US.
US people are dependent on the goods they like and are used to using. We are creatures of habit. And they will not alter their choices easily. Most would begrudgingly rather pay more than change their minds.
So in the end, who's to blame? We all are.
Increased costs from tariffs was supposed to slow down reliance on foreign imports. All it did in the end was to increase costs to the end user.
Sometimes people don't look at the finish line before they form a decision.
Hey Rob
Thanks.
Sorry that not having time to your offer to help us with the garage Door. I might buy the Springs this weekend. Not feeling well, cracked a few Ribs three weeks ago. Could use your help.
Cassie will be Whelping her pups on the 8th to 10th. Looks like 9 for sure and maybe another two hiding.
Have a friend (LRH Member) from PA coming down to get the Pick of the Litter.
Going to be a lot of work.
Maybe we can all get together and shoot at our Range while he is here.
Will call for assistance on the Door and them you and Kim can come over to see the pups!!!
Thanks much!

Just so everyone is clear, the value of products that could be imported duty free was raised from $200 to $800. The OP would have paid an import tax without the change and this was actually a tax cut.
