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.
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.
I’d argue the person who defends abhorrent actions just because they’re being conducted by their “team” is the liar and the asshole. They’re lying to themselves about doing “good” and being an asshole by propping up these destructive politicians to the detriment of us all.
Republicans being evil doesn’t make Democrats the good guys. We don’t live in a Marvel movie.
No one is doing that but you’re working hard to make 2016 and 2024 the default moving forward.
