Because they HAVE TO OBJECT to everything Trump does.

Nooo.. EVERYONE objects to the tariffs. Literally everyone but the extreme MAGA cult. Even the .01% know this is bad.

Who can honestly support tariffs? They are like an extra tax that WE have to pay, and see no benefit from. They will raise prices on everyday things.

Yes we are. This is the stupidest assemblage ( none of them would know that word) that we have ever witnessed in politics. I just shake my head whenerver anyone in this administration speaks.

It is incredibly stupid. Hard to figure out how these people think they will benefit from this.

Well, for the billionaires, it's good. They set up a huge regressive tax, so that the government raises more money while reducing the already low taxes on the uber-wealthy. A Liberating Day for the 0.01%!

Bingo. The Republicans have always hated the regressive tax system we have and wanted a flat tax. That wasn’t going anywhere but tariffs gets us closer. Hard to understand Trumps base which is going to get hurt the most.

I read somewhere that they estimated around $3500 cost to average household annually. Wonder if MAGA will still be able to convince themselves paying more is patriotic. It also said it erases like 3 years of wage increases.

Brian, Trump’s economist, who was a former Detroit autoworker, said yesterday that he and his 20 friends support it. So, with Trump, that’s 21 people in America who support tariffs.

No it's because we paid attention in school. We also object to Pam Bondi not following the rule of law. I'm sure there is some basic economics and civics classes online if you are interested.

These tariffs will have impacts well beyond 2040. Isolationism isn’t realistically feasible in modern times. We have opened doors of opportunity to China, India, and numerous other countries to walk through. It is the catalyst combined with his other policies that trigger the fall of this country. Buckle up, it is going to be rough.

Exactly....we are going to need to start a new FAFO page for MAGA's crying when this starts truly affecting their wallets. Not the really rich thought because they will get richer as per the Republican way.

Why would I support something that makes everything in my life more expensive? This is a bullying tactic. He’s using them to get these countries to drop their tariffs on US products. Some may cave, others might call the bluff. Guess we will find out, until then everything is going to be really really expensive.

I never really thought it could get to this point. I never voted for this blob but I did have faith we could weather the storm to come

It's been less than 90 days and we are already here. I'm not sure anymore that there is the ability to get through the damage as there is in hoping for mercy in the new world order to come!!!

It really truly affects all of us, rich and poor.

It affects lower incomes disproportionately. The price of a Honda accord is a much bigger chunk of HHI when you are making 75k vs 3 million. Tariffs are a tax disproportionately borne by the poor. It’s an inverse progressive income tax. Trump will convince congress to cut taxes, while disguising taxes on the poor as “liberty tariffs” or whatever bs he is calling it.

Yep. And it will hurt classic American products too.

When MAGA goes to buy their new F-150 that currently MSRPs for 50,000, they will find their new truck is now an unaffordable 70-75,000. Will fleets continue to scoop up the 10s of thousands of F-150s as that currently do with a 40-45% hike? Add on to that the additional cost of sales taxes. What's going to happen?

Most MAGA don't have an extra $300 a month.

Bimbo Barbie will claim it was a minor clerical error amidst the greatest statement on trade and the most powerful engine for economic growth the world has ever seen.

Larry Summers has come out with analysis that also accounts for the diminution of value in 401(k)s (and the markets generally), loss of economic growth and a variety of other factors. True cost over 10 years will be closer to 30 trillion. Or 300,000 per household. MAGA!
