Steel prices peaked in May 2018 and have retreated to pre-tariff levels after American factories boosted production and demand weakened.

MAGA You gotta feel bad for people who established towns and livelihoods on doing honest hard work only to have politicians who were in bed with industries move their jobs overseas for cheap labor (NAFTA). They did everything right and STILL to this day still get fucked by politicians Doubtful Trump's tariffs will bring back jobs in these steel towns. Imported steel will be still cheaper. These steel workers will suffer for a long time even with Trump tariffs. How long they want to suffer jobless while loving & voting Trump their Saviour? American voters!
