73% of Republicans think Tariffs will help the US

[PredFan]

Tariffs don’t help in the short term but they will long term.

 

[jc456]

already explained. you just need to read a little.

Yeah. You complained about fair trade versus free trade.

And I explained to you that tariffs cost consumers and domestic producers.

To which you replied nothing.

Well, JC's sort of an example of why I questioned the poll or maybe it's methodology. If you asked whether tariffs on china were good and whether tariffs of the eu were good, as separate questions, you might get differing results. The EU's currency floats, and it can be sued through the WTO for predatory pricing .... and it builds more cars here than we buy.

But as it is, we have 70% of republicans thinking Obama's a muslim and 70% thinking free trade is not good. That's a change. And if the republican party is the "conservative" party, that is a remarkable change. And I'm not sure where America is going. What with the dems embracing socialist candidates, at least in some districts.

The Democrat candidates labeled Socialist are being labeled Socialist by Trumpians. While Trumpians can fairly be labeled Nationalists. National populism is what has brought us to the state of affairs we suffer through today.

I am a nationalist. I believe in my country. I will fight for my country. if that means fighting you I will. So call me nationalist all day long and that would be a compliment.

And when your country is wrong you still fight on! So good of you to be like the nationalists of Germany or Italy.

wrong about what?

As new tariffs take hold, more see negative than positive impact for the U.S.

77% dems say bad thing.

The poll doesn't differentiate tariffs on countries with manipulated currency and below cost prices, but it still strikes me as odd. The gop is now isolationist.

And look at the break between college and non-college educated. And white grads and non-grads

Strange days indeed.

Are tariffs a bad thing?

When applied as tRump has yes.

How has he applied them differently than other countries?

Sir orange cheeto has applied them haphazardly to impact those who can least afford them.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

tick tock the clock will rock. but no evidence of tariff price increases will ever be seen on this forum. you all are just fake fks. BTW, it hasn't affected the stock market either. what happened to that prediction busts?

On the day Trump announced his first tariff, the DJI was at 26,282 and looking to keep going up.

Today it is at 25,041.

The NASDAQ was at 7424, today it is at 7843

The S&P 500 was at 2809, today it is at 2804z

That is 175 plus days of either stagnant or negative growth in the market.

President Trump has to stay the course until the world understands that America means business and thus they lower their barriers and abuses against U.S corporations.

Above....from a brain-washed, Trump Cult Member.

The EU is signing a FREE trade agreement with Japan, partially opening up a lucrative channel between Europe and the TPP members.

China is turning to Brazil and Argentina for their soy bean and corn needs.

...and YES, Germany has turned to Russia for its energy needs.

leaving the U.S. in the dust for the next couple of decades......ONLY Trump cult members can still "admire" the ghost-written bullshit in the "Art of the Deal" .....

What did don the con say?
Germany gets 90% of its energy from Russia?
Real number 7%?
Ah well he said his inspecting the guards when he barged in front of the queen was the first for 70 years.
She actually does it every year.
And Europe will now pay more.?
The Italian and French pm had no idea what he was talking about. The spending increases have been a schedule for years.
What kind of limited brain believes this guy.
He's done zero except blab America First, our WWII Nazi and isolationist group name

Nuff said.

And what has that trade deficit brought us to?

4% unemployment
109 straight months of economic expansion, the 2nd longest in the history of our country.
More open positions than people to fill them.
Near record consumer confidence.

And you non-free trade people want to end all of that..

How did Trump shift the Republicans from a free trade party to a pro-tariffs party? Free trade was a tent pole issue for Republicans.

The country is moving left faster than ever. The “right” now adopts polices that we’re far left 20 years ago.

108 or 109? Yesterday it was 108. We’re still in July. We gained a month and never left it. You actually mean 18 months.

I really don't think JC perceives anything wrong with non-democratic nationalists. That's why I don't respond to his posts.

everything costs consumers, cause nothing is free. But what you don't state is that if manufactured here, it will be cheaper and the price goes down. so you lie. fair trade will balance to free trade.

Oh BTW, you still haven't shown some products cost more because of the tariffs.

But what you don't state is that if manufactured here, it will be cheaper and the price goes down.

That is exactly 180 degrees wrong.

Its more expensive to produce here. That's why companies move production overseas.

 

[task0778]

It all boils down to what happens over the next few years, do we end up with a full-blown trade war with the EU and China among others, or do we end up with no trade war and better trade agreements? I haven't seen anybody say the current situation is favorable or even satisfactory for the US, and from what I read our trade barriers are far lower on goods coming into the US than the barriers our goods face going into most foreign countries. So why is Trump such a bad guy for trying to do something about that? It's not like anything else has worked, the situation hasn't changed much since WW II, right? So isn't it about time we did something about it? For sure Trump has upset the apple cart and got everyone's attention, let's see how it all works out.

Just think then, without the trade deficit, we might be at 1% unemployment, 1099 months of expansion, and record consumer confidence!
