Donald Trump gets bad news about his tariff plan from Americans in new poll
In a WalletHub Fed Rate survey, 74 percent of Americans said Trump's proposed tariffs would likely lead to more inflation down the line.
Summary
A new WalletHub poll reveals that 74% of Americans believe Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs will worsen inflation, which remains a major concern for most households.
Trump’s plan includes significant tariffs—up to 60% on Chinese goods and 20% on other imports—to protect American jobs and address issues like fentanyl production and border security.
Experts warn these tariffs could increase consumer prices, with middle-income families potentially losing $2,500 annually.
Analysts caution Trump’s plans may face political hurdles in Congress despite his economic-focused campaign promises.
Are we going to pretend he gives a shit? He doesn't. He got what he wanted, and he can't be elected again (barring him fucking our systems so severely that he manages to force a third term on us). He's going to wreck the justice system to avoid any consequences for his actions after his term, and he could very well kick the bucket while he's in office anyway (dude's got KFC gravy for blood).
He doesn't care. He no longer has to. He can play his country-destroying games with impunity. He has no reason to give a single fuck what the American people want.
The only poll that mattered was on November 5, 2024.
American Voters soon to get bad news that Trump does not give a fuck about them.
Too bad the poll that matters already happened.
Has he ever given a flying fuck. He's a complete moron.
Oh no, in light of this maybe he won't be elected anymore
Oh wait
"Get out and vote! Just this time. You won't have to do it anymore! Four more years, you know what? It'll be fixed, it'll be fine, you won't have to vote anymore." - Donald Trump, July 26th 2024
He meant it when he said that. He doesn't give a single shit what polling says about his plans. Americans already gave him what he wanted and thus no longer serve a purpose to him. He's going to get his tariffs no matter how much it fucks over the useful idiots that voted for this fascist dictatorship and there's nothing you can do about it. Because that's just what happens in a fascist dictatorship, so you're going to have to start getting used to it.
He has absolutely no reason to care now
Polls don't mean shit. The only polls Americans should've given more of a fuck about, were the election ones!
Too fucking late.
It won't. His Congressional majority is completely servile, and none of them care what the American people think. Their only focus is on looting and sabotage.
How's this news? That's literally what MAGA was selling the entire time. The so called "Temporary Hardships". They promised and they're going to deliver some economic hardships, that was the sales pitch and people voted for it. Anybody shocked is just not paying attention.
Crazy?! If only someone had said something!!!
Bad news? It's only bad news if he gives as shit, and clearly he does not.
Can't wait for worker shortages to cause supply line issues. I really hope the US feels this one.
So ashamed to be an American right now, but yet I might not be one starting January. So eh.
Eat dicks fuckers.
TLDR: this news paper found that less than 150 Americans out of the only 200 that were asked in a non-specified state think his tariffs will worsen inflation. This is bad news for Trump because he cares about what those 150 people think for some reason
At this point anyone still writing articles with the unstated premise that Americans are paying enough attention and in possession of enough information to have their voting choices influenced by actual policy proposals and their real-world effects should be stuffed into sacks and hit with sticks.
He said he was gonna.
"But, we didn't think . . . "
He SAID he was gonna.
"We really didn't expect "
HE F*CKING SAID HE WAS GONNA!
He’ll probably only care when he actually crashes the economy and everyone turns on him. It’s only a matter of time. I give it 1.5 years from Inauguration Day.
It will be chaos, at our expense (of course) and the American people will learn nothing.
Dumbasses asked for this.
Another facet of Trump's America: A million news stories about polls showing the majority of Americans hate Trumpian policies, officials, candidates, etc.
And none of them will matter. First, because these are polls and not elections. And second, because simple majorities alone are not sufficient to influence policy in America anymore.
"could" increase consumer prices? Really? Still not sure whether they will actually increase, if tarriffs are implemented?
"Gets"
“Hurr Durr”, replied Trump
Wharton shakes it head in shame.
And how much of that will find its way into his personal funds? So many big donations from big companies already - he's going to milk this for all the money he can.
