President Donald Trump signed a directive on Tuesday raising steel and aluminum tariffs to 50% from 25% starting on June 4, following through on a pledge to boost import taxes to help domestic manufacturers.

Trump cast the move, which takes effect at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday as necessary to protect national security.

The order said the previous charge had “not yet enabled” domestic industries “to develop and maintain the rates of capacity production utilization that are necessary for the industries’ sustained health and for projected national defense needs.”

This will put all infrastructure projects to a halt.

This is what you get from a retarded president.
