"What will likely happen if we impose tariffs?" and "Should we impose tariffs?" are two very different questions, and there are two very different groups of people and processes by which we would answer those questions. I think a big part of the MAGA revolution is against having the people who are qualified to answer the first question also get to answer the second question.

Let's see.

What will happen? The experts tell us that prices of imported goods will rise, fueling inflation.

So MAGA responds by saying we should impose tariffs.

As Alpha says:

You can't fix, well, you know.

The good news that while some folks don't learn well by watching or listening to others, they do eventually learn by experience. Don't try to tell them the flame will burn them. Just let them light the match and figure out the lesson for themselves. Unfortunately, all of us have to pay the price while the lessons are in progress.
