Summary
A new Harris Poll shows growing concern among Americans about Trump’s tariff policies, with 72% now worried compared to 61% in January.
Despite Trump’s claim that tariffs are “pouring money” into the country, 66% believe the U.S. economy will take years to recover from these measures.
The poll reveals a partisan divide: 90% of Democrats and 57% of Republicans express concern about tariffs.
Trump has already imposed additional tariffs on Chinese imports and all steel and aluminum, while threatening “reciprocal” tariffs on global imports.
Tariffs = taxings hard working American business and putting the profits into the governments hands. So Trump can practice his back swing.
What’s worse is how this will-he-won’t-he of making tariffs permanent and using them is causing businesses to also not import needed and desired products for fear that they could have a tariff removed at which point we have effectively purchased something for 25% more that we then can’t explain to the end consumer. People think it’s an on-off, but when products were purchased and brought in with a tariff that may no longer be effective it just makes for bad business.

Bags went from ~$24 to ~$36

I pulled most of my stocks the other day. I’m not trusting this fat fuck.
Exactly. You can’t gaslight away a rumbling belly.
