Dave Bossie and Peter Navarro: Defending Tariffs

In a recent discussion, Dave Bossie and Peter Navarro highlighted the significance of steel and aluminum tariffs during the Trump administration. Bossie emphasized the importance of these tariffs, stating, "Memo to Harris Biden: until you can’t really attack Trump for tariffs because those are still in place.” He defended the economic rationale behind the tariffs, arguing that they were essential for protecting American workers and businesses. Navarro reinforced this by noting, "During the Trump Administration, they didn’t cause a whiff of inflation. You can’t blame inflation on tariffs or Trump.”

Both Bossie and Navarro expressed frustration with criticisms from media outlets like the Wall Street Journal and Financial Times. Bossie remarked, "When you’re in a world of trade that is not free but mercantilist and predatory, the only thing countries can do to protect themselves is put on tariffs.” He emphasized that tariffs allow American businesses, especially small ones, to thrive and secure supply chains.

Tariffs and Economic Strategy

Navarro expanded on the strategic role of tariffs, particularly in counteracting unfair trade practices from countries like China. He said, "It’s probably the most understated but important tool in our trade box,” referencing the success of anti-dumping measures that helped protect U.S. jobs. He added, "You allow American workers and American businesses to defend themselves,” positioning tariffs as a critical element of a robust economic strategy.

The conversation also touched upon the ongoing tax proposals under the Biden administration. Bossie warned of the implications of the proposed tax hikes, stating, "With massive tax hikes proposed by Harris and almost 40% top income tax rate, we need to make our savings tax-sheltered and inflation-sheltered.” He advised listeners to consider gold investments as a hedge against economic uncertainty, urging them to contact Birch Gold for assistance.

“Trump Saves America” Documentary

Movie

In a broader context, Bossie and Navarro introduced their latest project, the documentary "Trump’s Rescue Mission.” Bossie described it as a critical tool for educating voters about the stakes in the upcoming election. "This is the most consequential election of our lifetime,” he asserted, emphasizing the documentary’s role in highlighting Kamala Harris’s record and the contrast with Trump’s leadership.

Navarro echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the urgency of the election. "We’re at a fork in the road, and America is going one direction or another. It’s either going to freedom and prosperity with Donald Trump or not,” he warned. They plan to leverage various distribution platforms to maximize the documentary’s reach, believing it could galvanize support for Trump’s agenda.

Mobilizing Voter Engagement

The discussion concluded with an emphasis on the importance of voter registration and mobilization in key states like Pennsylvania and North Carolina. Navarro pointed out the positive trends in voter registration, noting that they’ve cut the Democratic registration advantage in Pennsylvania from 685,000 to 340,000 over four years. He stated, "That cut is due to increased registration,” highlighting the efforts of campaign manager Susie Wiles in driving these changes.

As they strategized for the upcoming election, Navarro and Bossie urged their audience to engage actively in the political process. "Victory can be big enough they can’t steal it,” Navarro declared, encouraging listeners to participate in early voting and absentee ballot requests.

In summary, Bossie and Navarro’s dialogue underscored the importance of tariffs in supporting American workers, the strategic imperative behind their implementation, and the critical nature of the upcoming election. Their efforts aim to mobilize voter engagement while emphasizing the necessity of protecting U.S. interests against global economic pressures.
