day 3, and already everyone is talking non-stop about Trump.
This is going to be a very long year.
Isnt China Tarriffs a recipe for higher prices or inflation?
This might be an unpopular opinion, but what was all that bad about Trump’s tarifs? $80 billion in revenue with a negligible impact on wages and GDP. The biggest impact claimed is over 100k jobs lost but we’re damn near at full employment right now.
I mean, Biden has pretty much kept every tarif in place. Speaks volumes.
and another reason to vote Biden 2024
Trump’s tariffs probably primed the pump for supply chain issues during Covid and were a major contributor to inflation.
