Trump on April 2 announced a baseline duty of 10% on every import to the United States, along with additional tariffs for countries which have high tariffs on American exports.
Golden also complained that there aren't more Democrats in favor of Trump's tariff plan.
"I remember Dems being outraged by the World Trade Organization, NAFTA, all these trade deals, even as recently as TPP," Golden added. "Now all of a sudden it's like a complete 180 degree flip here where we're staunchly defending the importance and relevance of the stock market to the American economy and defending free trade deals."
When asked about Rep. Greg Meeks', D-N.Y., bill that would remove Trump's tariffs, Golden said "I'd be a 'no' on that."

"I think a wrong-for-decades consensus in Washington on free trade has been a race to the bottom," Deluzio said. "The president's tariff announcement, though, his trade strategy — it's been chaotic, it's inconsistent."
