Tariffs...fine, I'll do it myself.

Walmart buys jeans from China for $20.00. Walmart sells jeans for $30.00. Walmart gets hit with 20% tariff, and now pays $24.00 for jeans. Walmart now sells jeans for $36.00, in order to keep the same profit margin. Who ultimately pays the tariff? Hint. It's not China or Walmart

in 2017 trump put a 20% Tariff on Canadian lumber causing a major increase in the cost of new housing!

Great point

Nope. You don’t understand tariffs. And neither do any of your followers evidently. Tariffs are essentially like penalties. Yes, the company importing the good gets taxed. No, they cannot just pass on the cost to the consumer, because we live in a capitalist economy. And that means, if company A tries to increase prices because of tariffs, company B decides to make the good in the US, and ends up charging the same price as company A, except company B has goods that are made in the USA. So, people support company B instead of company A. Tariffs are designed to motivate companies to manufacture on native soil by punishing the companies that import from overseas for cheap. Do you know where the money from tariffs goes? Towards incentives for companies that are willing to manufacture on native soil! Tariffs are literally the ONLY way to bring manufacturing back onto native soil when companies like Tesla are so rare. Teslas are “the most American made cars” going on almost a decade now. And you know what I heard a liberal say yesterday, that Elon musk is evil because he stands to benefit from tariffs! Lol. That’s how distorted the logic has gotten and how clueless so many of you are that you would literally accuse the one company who has always manufactured on American soil despite the higher cost, that it was some part of a decades long master plan to team up with trump and “benefit” from the fact that his company won’t have to pay tariffs because it doesn’t import anything.

writing the letter “F” from the bottom up is insanity

I like to keep people guessing. 😉

Tariffs 1. "Foreign countries" don't pay tariffs; the domestic importer of the tariffed product does 2. The domestic importer then adds the cost of the tariff to its price 3. Americans pay for the tariff when they buy the imported tariffed product tRump simply doesn't get it

You’re missing so many key points. But I watched enough to know a conversation with you would be pointless

Well done, it’s amazing how Trump’s sycophants never bother to give him a 2 minute explanation like you just did….. ….it’s like he’s going around with a giant booger on his nose & nobody has the balls to tell him….. …..Trump is literally making an entire financial plan for the future of the United States using tariffs as a centerpiece thinking they will replace Income Taxes…

Trump is not talking “3%” tariffs. He’s talking 100-200% tariffs. Why? To force manufacturing back into the US. You then give incentives via tax breaks (before someone goes all AOC about that- Thats not losing money, because it didn’t exist in the first place) This then produces goods in the US, produces good jobs in the US, and produces economic growth in the US. Here’s an example: The US used to produce most automobiles in the US. Those were good paying, CAREER worthy jobs. They provided for individuals and families, as well as grew the economy. Were those cars more expensive back then? NO! What happened when they outsourced manufacturing to other countries? Job loss, economic loss, higher prices, and reliance on other countries. Stop listening to idiots who are simply ideologically captured just spreading low IQ propaganda. You think someone like Kamala Harris, or Brian Stelter know more about business dealings, than the guy who has done national and GLOBAL business for over 40 years, that was ALSO an economic success as President?
