Donald Trump’s pick for Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick, explained to CNBC how Trump’s tariffs will not only make the U.S. money, but also protect the American worker and boost American manufacturing.
As Howard Lutnick explained back in September, before Trump even won and Lutnick was nominated for an administration role, tariffs are “a bargaining chip” and an “amazing tool.” He described how the post-World War II-era Marshall Plan and similar projects long outlasted their usefulness and ended up creating a system rigged against American manufacturing, and in favor of our competitors in Europe and Asia.
Lutnick told the skeptical CNBC hosts on “Squawk Box” at the time that “We can’t sell a Ford or G[eneral]M[otors] in Europe. You go to Europe, you can’t sell [or] afford a GM. Why? There’s 100% tariffs. How about in Japan, 100% tariffs.” If Trump threatened 100% tariffs on European and Japanese autos, “Do you think they’re going to allow Mercedes and all these Japanese companies and Porsches and BMWs to all of a sudden, have 100% tax in America? Of course not, they’re going to come and negotiate and their tariffs are going to come down. And finally, Ford and General Motors are going to be able to sell in these places.”
One CNBC talking head began repeating over and over that Trump needed to impose tariffs “strategically” rather than “across the board.” Lutnick countered, “When you’re running for office, you make broad statements so people understand you, okay. Tariffs are an amazing tool by the President to use.” Trump does, however, understand “don’t tariff stuff we don’t make, right? … It’s pointless. But use tariffs to build in America. If we want to make it in America, tariff it, or [impose it] if we’re competing with a tariff.” He emphasized the key point: “But you got to remember, we need to protect the American worker. Finally, someone is going to protect the American worker, and Donald Trump is here to” do that.
When another CNBC talking head cut in to challenge Lutnick on multiple potential outcomes of imposing tariffs, Lutnick launched into an explanation that even the CNBC host admitted was the best explanation she’d heard on the topic. “So which is it, do we make a lot of money on tariffs, or we bring productivity here and we drive up our workers here?” Lutnick asked. Either way, “it’s a win-win scenario.” Now Trump and Lutnick will be able to make that scenario a reality. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
