Reporter: Those foreign countries paying those tariffs, won’t they pass those along? Trump: No, not really… It’s not going to have inflationary— if anything, it’s going to go the opposite because we’re going to use it to pay down the debt because we have too much debt.

Donald Trump has suggested eliminating U.S. income tax and replacing it with tariffs on imports. Read more:

The cost of tariffs are passed along to the citizens, and this would have the largest impact on low-income Americans.

@unusual_whales Trump already put tariffs on China during his term and that didn’t happen. Not only did it not happen, Biden kept the tariffs in place.

Repeat after me: A tariff is a tax on domestic consumers.

They’re worried that the tariffs will decrease their profits in making junk overseas.

Trump has the courage and brains to plan for the US to dig out of the $35 Trillion hole we are in. There's no short cuts. Who else even discusses this?

What a fucking moron.

Tariffs work to incentivize US competition. It’s time to stop letting other countries exploit their workers while simultaneously stymying US production.

The question and the answer were both wrong. Amazing

Let's see how it worked out last time. Oh. Donald is right.
