But seriously, as an aside, the only reason for tariffs or restriction of movement of skilled persons is to grow domestic sectors of the economy in anticipation of future loss of supply/increased demand (like during wars). Borders and tariffs are completely justifiable regarding defense and changing markets.
Current tariffs, M.E. wars and especially sanctions on Russia and its pipelines represent the failure of the US government to properly invest in its own human capital and to diversify its economy and are not justified, and new trade distortions in a similar vein will certainly lead to malinvestment.
So maybe justified tariffs and borders are even better than free trade OP
