  1. i actually don’t give a hoot about “other world economies”. how about we provide affordable housing, reduce the national debt, and stop the influx of fentanyl here?

  2. Also he has stated his intent to use the military against US citizens, also not good good for economic stability.

  3. It all makes sense when you realize that he is working for Putin.

  4. His tariffs will pay for childcare. He also wants crypto to pay the national debt. He also wants to get rid of the Department of Education. So he wants a world where we pay high prices, get robbed of stock investments, and refuse education to a large number of people. What could go wrong?

  5. Kamala raising corporations taxes will sink the stock market and pass the new tax to the consumer. More Inflation

  7. These tariffs would be the American version of Brexit. How good has Brexit been for the UK?

  8. It’s funny watching commenters with a below-high-school-101 level understanding of economics loudly proclaim that the actual economists are wrong and Trump’s plan is far better than Harris plan lmao

  10. He says tariffs like it’s abracadabra. He has no actual understanding of the economy, or by many accounts of those who worked for him, anything at all.

  11. Europeans and other freeloaders, along with scammer-in-chief China, are in full panic mode over what’s coming. Honestly, he’s a bit of a nut job on many issues, but on this one, he’s absolutely right. The entire narrative of globalization and interdependence that’s been sold since the 1980s is absurd and has only harmed workers, the middle class, and the opportunities that once defined the American Dream. People need to stop being delusional the world is a zero-sum game, and the U.S. stayed on top because it either bombed its competition into oblivion or stifled their growth, ensuring everything was concentrated here.
