ABOUT TARIFFS... Can I just explain how wrong Donald Trump sounds to those of us in the import business? He’s bullshitting you. Here’s the truth: I work in imports, and Trump’s claims are false. The importer (the company bringing goods into the U.S.) pays the tariffs, and that cost is added to the price of the product. Depending on the profit margin, part of that cost gets passed on to you, the consumer—but it's not a fixed amount. The country where the product comes from doesn’t pay the tariff. Tariffs are added to the price when the goods arrive in the U.S. So, in the end, WE—the American consumers—are the ones paying the tariffs through higher prices at the store.

Walmart CEO Doug McMillon warns that they will be raising prices in response to President Trump’s tariffs. Shoppers will likely see price increases toward the end of May and more in June. Batya Ungar-Sargon: “This is absolutely unacceptable and infuriating. Walmart walks around bragging that 75% of the products that they sell are made in here in the United States?” “Why are you raising prices?… Do you know what Walmart’s yearly profits were last year? $169B. Don’t raise prices. Support the president, support the agenda, support the American working class.” “I see rampant greed.”

Q: So the tariffs have been removed from these items that we all buy at the grocery store. How soon do we expect the prices on those goods to go down? Hassett: Well, the prices for those goods weren't necessarily going up just because of tariffs Q: So they might not go down? Hassett: Well, the prices will go down Q: Because the tariffs have been taken off? Hassett: Right

Cook: Based on the available data for September, it is estimated that the PCE price index rose 2.8% in the 12 months ending in September—significantly above the 2% target. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy categories, was also estimated at 2.8%. Both of these readings are as high or higher than those from a year earlier, propped up by an increase in tariff-affected goods prices. My outreach to business leaders suggests that the pass-through of tariffs to consumer prices is not yet complete. Many firms have adopted a strategy of running down inventories purchased at lower price levels before raising prices. Others have reported waiting until tariff uncertainty is resolved before passing increases on to consumers. As new car models, clothing lines, and other products enter the market, that process will continue to provide firms with opportunities to reset prices. As such, I expect inflation to remain elevated over the next year.

President Trump claimed his tariff policy would help our economy and reduce inflation. This week confirmed what many of us have been concerned about – the Consumer Price Index ticked up in June and we expect it to continue to rise as Americans, not other countries, pay more for goods because of the tariffs.
