The Trump Tariffs thread

[K1052]

I shouldn't say this as I'm a liberal.. but Biden lost on immigration. Trump won on immigration. But the migrants Biden let in boosted the economy hugely.

So now Trump's trying to get rid of the migrants and put tariffs.. that's like shooting yourself in both feet.. the economy and people's ability to pay for goods/ services/ meds they need.

He'll need a lot of shady accounting to say the roof is not falling.. but how can the roof not fall when you knock out the pillars of support?

Inflation was by far the most salient issue to voters. It is true that the number of people Biden (legally) admitted actually helped keep it relatively low and fueled growth. Since Trump has collapsed legal immigration and is trying to arrest the undocumented workforce it's starting to have the same effect in raising prices that people were unhappy about, along with his tariffs. Choking off the labor supply is inflationary.

Don't forget inflation and the perceived "trans in sports" problem that plagues the nation at every level

Fuck me

What an idiot

Last week he said are going to have 1000 1200 1500% cheaper drug prices

I wish some one would ask Caroline l what will this mean for the average Joe

She would go on a rant about Joe Biden and dodge question.

Trump loves his Chinese, Vietnamese, Bangladeshi and Mexican jeans.

Dumbest controversy ever. We should spend less time talking about Sydney Sweeney’s genes/jeans and more time talking about how back to school shopping will be so much more expensive for everyday Americans thanks to Trump.

For all the claims of "the left" melting down over it, I haven't seen it discussed anywhere other than here, and even that article just links back to another article that references 3 social media accounts that don't have a significant amount of followers. I think they're trying to make it a story.

The only people talking about this are on the right wing. Fox News is running wall to wall coverage.

The culture wars are all they have to keep the Owning of the libs, rage and hatred going in the MAGA base. The actual policies are taking a shit in popularity.

Trump likes Sydney Sweeney because she reminds him so much of Ivanka...

He'll just fire people that tell the truth until it's full 1984, telling starving people that the economy is thriving and everyone's rich.
