Bush's tariffs caused the economic problems that killed 200K jobs. The tariffs and the job loss set other economic forces in motion that remained when the tariffs were gone. Like manufacturing jobs moved overseas. You don't get those jobs back by rescinding the tariffs, they are gone and the consequences remain. If you light a candle and it burns down, you don't get the candle back by blowing out the flame.
