Trump's Policies are Inflationary

[Toro]

The single biggest economic issue that people complain about is inflation. And for good reason. Inflation is insidious. That's why the Establishment - you know, the people that most of you hate - worked hard for 40 years to keep inflation under control.

Who's policy proposals are most inflationary? That's easy. Donald Trump. And I don't like Biden's economic policies.

Here is what Donald Trump is proposing as economic policy

• 10% tariffs on all imported goods, 60% tariffs on all Chinese imports
• Reducing or eliminating the independence of the Federal Reserve, keeping interest rates low
• Deporting 15 million people who do all the shitty jobs Americans won't do.

Tariffs - Tariffs are taxes. They are taxes paid by American consumers. They are NOT paid by foreigners. It is the height of economic ignorance to believe otherwise. Trump's tariffs are inflationary as US companies will jack up prices to pay for the taxes.

The Federal Reserve - There is very strong evidence that an independent central bank does a better job at controlling inflation. Countries where the central bank is weak - Argentina, Turkey, Zimbabwe, Venezuela - have very high inflation or even hyperinflation.

Deportation - I get why people don't like illegal immigrants. But many do the jobs that most Americans won't do. They account for 22% of construction workers, 23% of service and hospitality workers, and over 30% of agricultural workers. What do you think is going to happen to home prices and food prices when you eliminate a good chunk of the workers are no longer here? Pro tip: They ain't going down.

So you say. You are not showing me shit. Well, maybe shit.

He also disregards any facts that dispute his narrative.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

It's just so obvious the moron Trump doesn't know anything about anything.

He hears a group of rich people hates something? Then he tells them he will get rid of it, and to give generously.

Focus groups tingle at the mention of China? Then he says he will impose tariffs.

He is a shallow, reactionary idiot.

Well, if I "showed you shit," you wouldn't believe me.

Because you're in cult, Lastdeadender, because precious snowflake feelingz.

why didn't Trumps tariffs cause inflation during his presidency ...

They did, genius, in the goods the tariffs targeted.

They also reduced real income and dampened GDP.

But if Newsmax don't say it... then yidnar don't think it...

Far be it from you to actually read something like a big boy and see why tariffs are ill advised.

Trump’s Tariffs Were Much More Damaging Than Thought

Research on the impact of Donald Trump’s trade policy finds to the extent a president manages the economy, Trump managed it poorly.

household income grew under Trump and inflation was below 2 % on average .

And his tariffs lowered real income and dampened GDP.

In other words, the economy would have been better, had Trump spent those 4 years in a Miss Teen USA dressing room instead of in the White House.
