Just wait till next month.
Nearly 90% of Americans expect tariffs to raise prices, Gallup poll finds
This isn't a prediction of an oncoming recession you said was coming but never came. This is supposed to happen in May. What are you going to say next month when prices go up and shelves are empty? Are you going to ask us to sacrifice for 2 years?
Somethings going down.
Stocks fell sharply on Monday
Maybe this is why prices are going down. That tends to happen in a bad economy.
Financial anxiety turns the political tide against Trump
After campaigning on lower prices, Donald Trump spent his first 100 days focused on tariffs that threaten to raise the cost of living.
Trump’s chaotic first months have tipped the U.S. into turmoil, shaking the foundations of its financial system and feeding fears that the man who pledged to pilot the nation into a prosperous “golden age” is instead driving it toward an economic ditch.
Americans’ faith in Trump’s stewardship of the economy is faltering, with
most now saying his changes to the country’s political and economic systems have gone “too far.” The president’s trade war is testing the resilience of global markets and businesses. And among his allies, there is growing concern that Trump is squandering his political mandate by pursuing policies almost certain to push prices even higher.
The economic shock spurred by Trump’s broad-brush tariff regime has erased billions of dollars from retirement savings over the last month and turned consumer sentiment sharply negative, marking an end to the White House’s short-lived honeymoon.
Trump is under water with voters on his handling of the economy, according to fresh polling ahead of his 100-day mark — including one
Pew Research Center survey showing faith in his economic decision-making at the lowest point of his political career. Consumer confidence measures have plunged since January, as voters brace for higher inflation and fewer available jobs.
I showed you that Biden actually did a great job and the economy was fine last year. You guys said it didn't "feel" that way. Now you want hard evidence prices are going up? I can't give you that. It just feels like it. LOL.
Over 50 percent of the respondents said the economy had gotten worse since Trump was sworn in.
In a statement, White House spokesman Kush Desai cast Trump’s first 100 days as an economic success, pointing to commitments from some major corporations to invest in U.S. manufacturing and a slight drop in the March inflation rate driven by falling fuel prices
Trump has instead spent his opening months consumed by waging an unprecedented trade war, concerned less with addressing ground-level voter challenges than with overhauling the entire global economic order.
White House aides readily acknowledge that their tariff agenda is forcing Americans to bear the “pain” of upending trade alliances and rewiring supply chains, which economists project will spike prices and raise the risk of shortages for everything from cars to electronics to clothes.
“The first 100 days are typically when the president gets an immense amount of grace from the voters,” “If they already don’t like it, well, historically these things don’t get any better over time.”
