If Trump tariffs work bigly would Democrats have even a small chance to win the midterms or the 2028 presidency?

The tariffs will not work. They will just increase costs for people. It means that americans pay more and affects consumer confidence which will inevitably impact the economy. So the question is immaterial.

So how are they working for the countries that have the tariffs on the USA

 

[Captain Caveman]

Bigly is not a word.

Bigly means -

having great meaning or lasting effect

That is because the message and public aim of the democrats change from month to month, day by day, season after season, often in stark conflict with their past record as if they are unaware it is all recorded on video, while at the same time, sticking to an increasingly anti-social, anti-USA platform.

Yep. They are definitely anti-USA and shockingly Pro-China. Given Biden's overwhelming support for China, it really does beg the questions: Does China actually fund a lot of the democrats and a lot of the anti-USA rhetoric and propaganda? Do the democrats actually want to institute something similar to the CCP in America? I think the answer is yes to both.

Of that I think there can be little doubt.

That’s a pretty big ‘if’

Funny how the Left always use "Could", 'Might", "May", "Possibly" in their arguements against Trump, and then believe their story is reality. As soon as a Right-winger uses "If", the Left's anal tampons fall out

You guys are funny.

And you neo-leftists all say Elon Musk is an idiot. Please keep pretending that you neo-leftists know what you are being told to repeat and aren't always wrong about everything. It's really pathetic.

What the fuck is a "neo-leftist"?? Is it a new word that you MAGA bumpkin imbeciles made up to try to sound smart??

Musk disagrees with Trump on these stupid ass tariffs. That is the bottom line that you MAGA idiots can't defend.

He voted for Harris and was convinced she would win. Nothing else need be said.

That's right. There are no tariffs. It's all staged.

Could that be why they are so against the tariffs / trade war? If Trump makes this work it is highly likely that tariffs would be the final nail in the coffin for a party already on life support. Your thoughts?

No you moron. That tariffs are NOT WORKING.

Trump keeps invoking William McKinley's Administration and how McKinley passed tariffs that made the USA rich. But he never tells you what happened to the US economy after McKinley's tariffs went into effect.

"The immediate effects were dramatic. Prices on imported goods surged, causing construction costs to rise almost overnight. Builders and contractors, already working on thin margins, had to either absorb the costs, pass them on to customers, or find alternative materials. Tinplate, essential for roofing and metal fixtures, saw import duties more than double—from 30% to 70%—leading to higher prices for homes, office buildings, and public infrastructure (Taussig, The Tariff History of the United States, 1910)."

I dunno

14 months is not much time to prevent a democrat takeover of congress

I think we should hope for the best but prepare for the worst

Btw: in 4 years vindication may be possible

Your faith in the 6 time bankrupt economic moron is astonishing given that he crashed your economy the first time he was in office.

There is no plan here. He doesn't know what he's doing and neither do his negotiators. The rest of the first world - the people who can AFFORD to buy your exports, are busy making deals amongst ourselves.

The Third World Countries, where workers are paid pennies per day, cannot afford to buy your exports. That's the idiocy of the Trump tariffs.

The insidiousness is that Trump has said that even after his trade war ends, a 10% general tariff will remain in effect on all imports.
