Machado said that tariffs bothered globalists because they presupposed borders and economic sovereignty. He also linked the proposal by Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan to strengthen Europe economically and militarily to Mario Draghi's plan, which he claimed sought to centralize European economic, financial, and military power.
