The bone spur genius at work. Releasing his economic wrecking ball on the budgets of every American. Without so much as a thought to the increased financial suffering it causes.
May a lightning bolt from the Christian Nationalist's god strike him down.
Most estimates I've seen put the impact of tariffs on Americans at somewhere around $500.00 a year. Now add in medicaid cuts so Trump can "pay for" his tax cut for billionaires and those costs tend to settle in around an additional $2000.00 bucks a year for a lot of folks.
All of which was 100% avoidable.
Didn't he run on reducing the cost of living for us?
Of course he did. Will he supporters be mad? Not at all. Because they've got some misguided idea that Trump must have a super secret master plan in that big brain of his that, in the end, will vindicate them and their vote.
Otherwise they'd have to admit they were duped.
This is why after hemming and hawing for two years, I bit the bullet and traded in my 22 year old Honda for a 2021 Mazda in December. A family member (trump voter) laughed at me when I told them that tariffs were a major reason for my decision. They kept saying, "oh, you should know by now, he is all bluff".
Am I the only one out there who knows that the Smoot-Hawley tariff was the principal trigger for the 1929 stock market crash and the Great Depression?
Not any more Shaw. Grey One here. Still on the phone as the kid moved on to Leverage-Redemption.
Huh, knew that unregulated bank and market shenanigans had a part, hadn’t heard about the Smoot-Hawley tariff. Will have to do some reading. Thanks for the tip. Sure I’ll have more to say once I’m up to speed.
