I thought the tariffs were going to tank the economy and we were going to be eating zoo animals now?! What happened?!

Oh, TACO right?

The tariffs haven't started yet. So if course we haven't seen the full impacts. If trump is smart (which he isn't) he will dump the policy. The DOW would go up 2,000 points immediately.

The same PP with the same repeated comments about how the market is so high now or their 401k at an all time high, ignoring that because of Trump, it is only now getting back to where it was 6 months ago before he took office. Which yes, finally means an all time high. Meanwhile our trade partners are still wary of doing business with us and made stronger partnerships among themselves.

The stock market is not everything. Repatriating American businesses, growing manufacturing jobs, and lining our coffers with tariff money to support spending and tax cuts is a good thing. I supported Biden when he was implementing tariffs on China and repatriating businesses with the CHIPS Act and I support this too. So do a lot of unions. You remember unions, DCUM “Democrats”? The people who the 20th Century Democratic Party fought for? I still do and I haven’t wavered.

I was told the economy would crater and we’d be eating giraffes and water buffalo and government cheese by now because of his tariffs. What happened? After a certain point when you’re wrong and hyperventilate about EVERYTHING people tend not to trust you.

It is almost July. We have collected $75 billion in tariff revenue so far, according to Politico.

https://www.politico.com/interactives/2025/trump-tariff-income-tracker/

The United States has generated $75.7 BILLION this year from tariffs as of JUNE 23, the latest data available — 86.7% MORE than the same time last year.

You are wrong. We can all use the internet. Stop lying.

But he has not actually implemented the tariffs he would said to, so... Not sure your point? He has chickened out every single time. Yes, our economy is doing vetter because he has held off in implementing what he said he would, so I guess, thank you Trump for the Uturn.

We received $75B in tariff revenue so far. What are you talking about? Do you just read MSNBC headlines all day? Are you completely oblivious to anything outside of your curated bubble?

Such a misleading headline. This is due in large part to AI replacing every level jobs, not because of an economic downturn. Universal Basic Income is going to have to be a thing. We could have had someone smart like Andrew Yang, but he wasn’t dumb enough for this country.

Do you really think people are going to be happy being told they'll be getting welfare for the rest of their lives than having an actual, meaningful career? This isn't going to work.

Prices definitely up. Looking at regular non-food items I buy 1 or 2 times a year and seeing a clear trend of increases in price of 10-15%.

Source for this claim? I’m seeing estimates of around 40% of layoffs due to AI.

They aren't repatriating businesses. That ship sailed two months ago. You are giving all the MAGA reasons without understanding that Trump already pulled back on a lot of those reasons.

Re: Growing manufacturing jobs- that was already happening under Biden, look it up.

"lining our coffers with tariff money" - uh, that is a regressive tax on American consumers.

Translation: Trump has raised taxes on the American consuming public by 69 million dollars.

Do you get it, yet?
