Kevin O'Leary is giving President Donald Trump credit for striking a $42 billion tech deal with the U.K., but he's not holding back when it comes to tariffs. In a Fox Business interview and a post on X, the investor and “Shark Tank” star said recent trade policies are hurting American consumers and collectors like himself.
“Tariffs matter,” O'Leary wrote on X recently. “Right now, Canada is facing a 35% tariff on softwood lumber and aluminum. That's driving up the cost of housing in the U.S., because you can't replace those inputs overnight—it would take decades.”
