14. Coca leaves, cane sugar, coffee beans are all things we have to import because they don't grow here

It has to do with climate, growing season, soils, annual rainfalls, and cost of labor. If Chump were anything resembling a good businessman, or even a not-terrible businessman, he would have KNOWN THIS ALREADY!

But he doesn't know any of this, and here we are, debating these stupid tariffs because we have to IMPORT STUFF! Well yeah, of course we have to import these things because we can't grow them HERE!

(I would add cacao beans to this list, which is another C. I'm sure there are others.)
