Summary
A new WalletHub poll reveals that 74% of Americans believe Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs will worsen inflation, which remains a major concern for most households.
Trump’s plan includes significant tariffs—up to 60% on Chinese goods and 20% on other imports—to protect American jobs and address issues like fentanyl production and border security.
Experts warn these tariffs could increase consumer prices, with middle-income families potentially losing $2,500 annually.
Analysts caution Trump’s plans may face political hurdles in Congress despite his economic-focused campaign promises.
Even if Harris won, that wouldn’t have changed anything materially with the country. There’s a deep rot in the country, and it’s just getting worse regardless of who’s winning elections.
If Trump lost in 2016 abortion would still be legal and pregnant women wouldn’t be dying of sepsis.
You are demonstrably wrong.
And if Dems had passed single-payer instead of a Republican healthcare plan when they had a supermajority in 2010, thousands of people wouldn’t be dying from lack of adequate healthcare and people wouldn’t be cheering about a healthcare CEO getting executed in the street in 2024.
If they’d boosted the minimum wage at any point since 2009, maybe so many people wouldn’t be living in their cars or in tents on the sidewalk.
If they’d fought harder to maintain Obama’s SCOTUS nomination in early 2016 instead of “waiting until after the election,” or fought against Trump nominating someone a month before the 2020 election, abortion would still be legal.
If they actually stood for the principles that they claim to, our weapons and tax dollars wouldn’t be currently being used to turn tens of thousands of Palestinian men, women, and children into red mist.
Trump is just a symptom of the rot that I’m speaking of not the cause. It doesn’t matter if he wins an election or not because there’s a lot more like him lining up to hold office.
Only if you think slapping a coat of paint on a dilapidated house makes it livable again. Republicans want to turn the country into a dystopian nightmare, and Democrats have proven time and time again through their actions that they’re more than willing to, at worst, help it along, or at best, do nothing to stop it.
You can choose to believe the empty promises and hopium, but I don’t. A bunch of sycophants who are more preoccupied with deflecting criticism than actually wanting to fix things or hold politicians accountable aren’t going to change my mind. The 5 word responses that amount to little more than meme or bumper sticker phrases just proves that your position is indefensible.
You can choose to believe that being overtly evil is the same thing as being neglectful but it just makes you look like either a liar or asshole.
This is not true. I don’t understand why you’re even saying this obvious both-sides propaganda after the election. Harris would not have tanked the economy like Trump’s about to. Biden recovered the damage trump did in his first term and it’s reasonable to think Harris would have continued that trend.
