Even Pence Can’t Spin Tariffs as a Win

And I saw Secretary Bessant um speaking very glowingly about the projection is $300 billion in tariff revenue this year. Well well tariffs are a tax and uh American importers and businesses and ultimately consumers pay almost all of that. And so literally a week after we managed to extend the Trump Pence tax cuts and prevent a $2,000 tax increase on working families, the administration is right now boasting of the fact that uh that the average American household is going to see about $3,000 increase in the cost of goods because we’re paying

We 👏 pay 👏 the 👏 tariffs 👏

  12. Pence should've 25th'd Trump before he almost got him hanged on Jan 6. He didn't, so now the American middle class is the one hanging from the gallows.

  16. You played footsie with MAGA idiocracy when you thought you’d benefit, even at the cost of your so-called morality. You sold your soul. Too late for takebacks.

  20. Why u didn't go against the president on some things he wanted to do when u were the vice president u might b president now. U seen like a decent man now blive n the rules of law n the constitution. when u were the vice president u made yourself look like the president didn't blive n the constitution racist didn't blive n women rights didn't think ppls of colors should hold power i might have voted for u bcuz i don't vote by party i vote for the person i blive that will serve all America ppls.

  30. Such a short sighted and insincere criticism. If imports get expensive then home produced products become viable increasing independence and economic growth in the US

  33. Pence is an economics genius.😂
    Can't wait for him to explain why trickle down has never worked before.

  36. Poor Pence…Stood by and was a total sycophant and made himself look like the biggest tool…And has no respect. This will happen to all the cabinet and other officials in the WH now who are doing the same thing only more intense,

  37. Why do they have to lie and be dishonest. It's not just American companies who pay, it's any company that imports goods

  40. Pence is desperate to be somebody. Todays GOP will never allow that. He may as well go fishing or work in his shop. He sure sucked up when he wanted the job though, didn't he?

  42. Trump is THE greatest con man in the history of the world. He got his avid average income supporters to appaud him for imposing a tax they mostly bear the burden of, lauding him as a economic and foreign policy genius. 😂😂😂

  44. Eh? Whats that? You think trumps a bad president? Thanks for letting us know, you piece of printer paper.
