But I thought tariffs didn't increase prices!

[candycorn]

I think he means the democrat policies that were in place before Trump took office, not your personal policy preferences.

Trump's policies need time to work. I don't know if they will kick-in by the mid-terms, we'll see.

This is interesting.

Let’s say the policy works. SPECIFICALLY…what would be the result? Reshored jobs or just more tariff whiplash? It will be good to see if it’s working or not.

trump doesnt tell me nothing...now what did the dems tell you?...

What Dems do you think are talking to me and are they in the room with us now? You are deflecting. If there is an emergency tariff needed when did the emergency on coffee end?

This is in response to his sinking approval rating.

Tariffs are taxes and lowering taxes always helps lower cost

So you understand that the President doesn’t have the power to levy taxes… right?

 

[Lesh]

It’s been months, and real leaders can end emergencies quickly

Wouldn’t things have to change if emergencies end?

What changed?

No congress does and in relation to tariffs gave the president board powers in levying them

Really? Then it should be easy for you to explain how the emergency ended for coffee but still exists for English Whiskey?

 

[Mr Natural]

Trump put tariffs in place to grift and extort $$$.

It’s what He’s best at.

And I’m sure you can prove that steaming pile…

Geez man, maybe spend less time deflecting from how your party protected sexual predators like Epstein and watch the actual news

I think it’s an emergency that you drink English whiskey

As far as Brazil… https://finance.yahoo.com/news/brazil-sees-provisional-us-trade-003500171.html

Tariffs increase prices until the other side caves in. Foreign countries have been shitting on Uncle Sam for decades. Now we have a president who does something about it and the TDS left hates him for it.

 

[Lockback]

This is weird. Why would he pull any of the insane tariffs that HE PUT IN PLACE?

Trump scraps tariffs on beef, coffee and tropical fruit in a push to lower grocery store prices

It's almost as if tariffs increase prices. But, as we're told, that doesn't happen.

You really have no clue how Trump works, do you?
He's playing chess while you're fiddling with marbles.

Except prices are NOT lower and the job market is worsening

This reneging is the result of lazy, Bombastic Tariff Policy

Vs.

Thought out, Strategic Tariff Policy

Maybe? They either did or they didn’t.

Tariffs on beef and coffee imported from Brazil were never about...........

The other side: Solicitor General D. John Sauer, who argued on behalf of the government, said that the tariffs' primary purpose was to regulate foreign commerce, borrowing language from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

A line of reasoning that has already blown up in the regime's face.

They were imposed as a punitive measure in retaliation for Bolsonaro's prosecution/conviction.

Now Dotard's repeal of some tariffs, according to him, risks the destruction of America.



WTF?

Wait? So fentanyl isn't an emergency anymore? So, trade deficits aren't an emergency anymore? I am so confused. If an emergency power is enacted due to an emergency and nothing has changed.... was there ever an emergency?

Didn't he say they were perfect?

Well that…and oh yeah…the government that the blob sits on top of is not importing stuff by and large; Wal Mart, Target, Kroger, Safeway, Costco, etc is. The child-like extortion fantasy of elektra is just that…pure fantasy

This is in response to his sinking approval rating.

It’s what He’s best at.

LefTard Logic:
“Tariffs only work for other nations when heavily imposed upon the United States…we must continue allowing the world to pound our ass while we look the other way and pretend it isn’t happening like only purple hair globalist nose-ringers would.”

I think MAGA is still down on their knees praying we don't get fooled again ...

If it is proven out in time that it worked, will you come in here with an apology, and say he was right?

 

[ThisIsMe]

Ill never understand why people celebrate Americans subsidizing the rest of the world. We often pay more for the exact same goods that other countries pay less for, that are made by the same company.

I guess we need to replace the flag as America's symbol with a giant tube of KY jelly.

 

[Mac1958]

Why is it that Trumpsters think that the only way to do something is the chaotic caveman way?

Why don't they understand that we can agree on an issue -- such as optimizing tariff policy -- but disagree on how to approach it?

Is this REALLY all that ******* complicated for them? Is this really THAT FAR over their freaking heads?

Trump-tard Logic....put tariffs on every product in the world, even if we can't grow it or make it.....duh!
