President Trump posted this morning from Mar-a-Lago: "THIS WILL BE THE GOLDEN AGE OF AMERICA! WILL THERE BE SOME PAIN? YES, MAYBE (AND MAYBE NOT!). BUT WE WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, AND IT WILL ALL BE WORTH THE PRICE THAT MUST BE PAID."
-Axios

Who is going to feel the pain? The Trumps and techno-oligarchs or the working class?

Who is going to pay the price that must be paid? The Trumps and techno-oligarchs or the working class?





*At least the Trump University applicants that got f@ucked trusting Trump got to share in a $25M settlement.

There are actually dumba^^ Trump supporters all over social media actually claiming that these tariffs on Mexico and Canada are "great" and will bring in massive amounts of "revenue" to the U.S. Treasury which will wind up eliminating the need for a federal income tax.

The U.S. consumer can expect the avg car purchase to cost $3,000 more, according to industry analysts.

This is gonna make inflation under Biden's term look like child's play.

MAGA!

Nice projection, J.D. You are part of an Administration that is owned by the techno-oligarchs and you co-op the terminology like a 10 year old boy (like Trump's "No, puppet, no puppet, your the puppet," comment).

The people that are going to feel the pain and get a Basic Econ. 101a lesson are all of those hispanics, asians, and african americans who were upset with all of the inflation during the Biden Administration and voted for Trump because he promised lower grocery and gas prices.

They are about to receive a very rude awakening.

He's only been in office for two weeks. Wait the four years before you decide if he should deserve a place on Mt. Rushmore.

Trump wanted the tariffs against Canada, backed by the high-level economic argument that... Trudeau pissed him off.

Look, in some instances (fairly rare), targeted tariffs can be a good idea. However, just about zero economists who actually believe in capitalism are for these Trump tariffs. And they will come back to haunt him, provided the non-Trumpers can message this effectively (big "if", perhaps).

He's Michael Knowles. You know, THE Michael Knowles. I hear he's good friends with The Rick. Probably donates to The Ohio State Buckeyes too.

Except Trump dealt with South Africa 6 years ago. He threatened them with sanctions and they decided against land theft.

Biden would have had his sippy cup hours ago while Chancey Gardner entertained his wife.



But for now, this conflict helps WEF's empty-suit Trudeau.

You conflate his "resilience" with sheer STUPIDITY.

You were wrong before. Tariffs on China: the data (2017 through 2019) proved the tariffs did not raise prices.

It is you that is WRONG.

A.) The CPI did in fact increase from 1.3% in 2016 to 2.4% in 2018.

B.) His tariffs on China were only $360 billion and spread out over time via four tranches.

C.) This time around, inflation is alive and well as confirmed by bond yields. The supply chain still has issues.

D.) His tariffs on Canada (25%) and Mexico (25%) are all at once and cover $1.3 Trillion in goods. Nearly 4x that of before.

Even Chuck Schumer admitted Trump was doing the right thing back in 2018.
