The REAL Reason Canada's Aluminum Exports are KILLING US Tariffs | George Conway The Soldier 1.53K subscriber
Trump is furious as Canada ships its aluminum to Europe instead of the United States—revealing the real consequences of Trump’s aluminum tariffs. In this video, we analyze how aluminum tariffs imposed under the “America First” agenda backfired, driving Canadian suppliers away, fracturing supply chains, and raising costs for U.S. manufacturers.
Rather than protecting American workers, aluminum tariffs created shortages, inflated prices, and handed competitive advantages to European and Asian manufacturers. We explain why aluminum tariffs could never solve America’s structural aluminum deficit, how the “tariff umbrella” enriched a small group of producers, and why millions of downstream jobs in autos, aerospace, construction, and consumer goods paid the price.
This deep dive shows how Trump’s aluminum tariffs pushed Canada toward Europe, exposed the gap between political rhetoric and economic reality, and demonstrated how concentrated interests win while costs are quietly passed on to workers and consumers. If you want to understand why aluminum tariffs failed—and why similar trade policies keep repeating the same mistakes—this video breaks it all down.
