Trump has defended his policies, saying tariffs will cause "some little pain" upfront but in the long term will be "worth the price."

It's a tax on consumer goods to be paid by Americans. That's how tariffs work.

As this mess unravels MAGA acolytes will need to shelter from the storm... 'We voted for...'... ... higher food prices... ... fewer jobs... ... stuck wage rises... ... corrupt political games to protect Congressional majority... ... no 'repeal' of climate change disasters... ... no end to wars.

The one-day-war-solver may also have damaged the US reputation and financial possition by slamming tariffs out randomly. Ukraine was a failure, and the outcome from the tariff regime must be awaited to see, untill trading partners little by little redirect activities. The scale is the fun part.

Apparently, Trump doesn't understand how tariffs work. Another name for tariffs is taxes. The dealer or manufacturer will pass the added expenses on to the consumer.

Oh, the ILLEGAL taxes? He lies and cheats at golf. He is ruining the country, for his own gain, and Newsweek still can’t speak plainly.
