MMT'ers believe that the purpose of taxation is to reign in monetary inflation, so they would see tax cuts as inflationary.
That seems contradictory with the claim that increased tariffs are inflationary. However, if you switch to talking about price inflation, there's a case to be made. Tariffs increase the price of imported goods.
MMT is so irresponsible and intellectually dishonest
The idea is that high taxation reigns in monetary inflation by discouraging commerce?

No, that's more of the neoclassical view.
The MMT position is that you use taxation to directly reduce the money supply. Think money fire.
