Your body is a complicated system. There are a lot of factors that interact to decide your overall health. I can still confidently say hitting yourself in the hand with a hammer is bad for you.
The economy is a complicated system. There are a lot of factors that interact to decide the overall health of an economy. I can still confidently say a party that adds no economic value to anyone pocketing a huge chunk of the value of every exchange is bad for the economy.
Every argument I've seen for tariffs might be good is analogous to saying hitting your hand with a hammer might improve your health. Why not, the body is a very complicated system you couldn't possibly know.
