It sounds like he thinks the word “tariff” just means “payment”. Then he follows that with “[whoever he thinks should make the payment]”. Tariff by Apple, Tariff by China, etc. Honestly. I don’t know how else you can make it make sense.
If Apple is the importer of record for its products, then it does incur and pay the tariff to the U.S. government. But obviously that gets passed along to consumers as no company will simply eat the cost.
He wants to consolidate manufacturing to make the US more self sufficient. The tariffs are simply a tool to designed to encourage local manufacturing.
He wants to start dominating smaller countries just like Russia and China. As well as annexing neighbors. He wants to do what Hitler couldn’t. He wants to use the most powerful military in the world.
If he wants to go to war, then he’s probably going about things the right way. Historically, being reliant on other countries for your supply chain can be a huge liability in war. For example, we were in danger of losing WW2 because of a lack of access to rubber. We need it for boots and tires, and we got it all from South East Asia, our access to rubber was completely cut off by Japan, it was a huge problem until we developed synthetic (plastic) rubber. We literally wouldn’t have been able to put boots on the ground or vehicles on the road.
If we were to end up in a conflict with China for instance, we would lose access to a lot of high tech manufacturing, we suddenly wouldn’t be able to make new computers. That could be bad.
Anyway, the signs are all here, Hitler V2 wants to mobilize soon.

he makes it sound like the manufacturers pay the tarriff so his moron supporters think it’s a good idea.
All to try and flood the treasury so he can afford tax cuts he promised to donors.
Turns out running the government is hard and it sucks.

It’s pretty clear what he wants. He wants WW3.
