Chris Fenton explains how Trump’s border and tariff policies work hand in hand

Author and Populist China expert Chris Fenton explains how President Donald Trump’s border and tariff policies work hand in hand to protect American labor. “Tariffs are really a protectionist policy, much like border protection, that is keeping our companies from moving off shore to find that low wage labor if they can’t get it here. Or if they’ve already done it, it incentivizes them to bring it back,” he says. “And that’s what really President Trump is trying to accomplish, both on his tariff policy and on his border policy.”
