Most tariffs haven’t gone into effect yet, and many companies stockpiled. Most have predicted prices to go up in the next 6 months.
Stop basing everything on cherry picked timelines that agree with your bias. I could say that mortgage rates have gone up and the stock market down since trump took office.
There is no scenario where the current and announced upcoming tariff rates don’t increase prices and inflation.
Everything is “experts predicted” …. “50 economists say” …..
It’s never what has happened.
Inflation has dropped like a rock. Fact
I wish people would start paying attention more to what actually happens than to listen to tbe “experts” who have CONTINUALLY been wrong.
And yes there is a scenario they don’t raise prices. Read the paper from Trumps economic advisor.
More than likely a negotiation will be made. China already reduced some of their tariffs, you just didn’t hear about it. They said they were willing to come to the table. Don’t let anyone fool you, China is hurting bigly.
Everyone wanted something to be done about China, Trump is just the first one with the balls to do it.
We had a chance to do this on Democratic terms 12 of the last 16 years but they didn’t do anything about it. So now it’s time to let Trump cook. Give them four years cause that’s what he gets.
