The correct answer is to protect domestic businesses.
When the US government puts a tax on an imported good (aka a tariff) they are trying to protect American businesses. The US government, when it passes tariffs, believe that the increased price of foreign goods with result in citizens buying goods from American made companies, as they will be similar in price or cheaper. This strategy has been used by the United States since the early 1800's and continues to be used as a means of protecting American businesses.
