He gave Customs his personal bank account to deposit the tariffs into. He doesn't see why everybody is so upset at such an easy money-making scheme. Works great for him!
200% tariff on Champagne? How is this going to help US ? How is this going to hurt France ? Pretty sure champagne will sell no matter the price. This cannot favor US producers since Champagne can only come from Champagne in France. If you make the same sparkling wine in US it cannot be called Champagne and it will sell at a much much lower price and rich people will not be interested to buy it.
