If they work, great. They can help the imbalance.

If they make the situation worse, the next POTUS in 4 years will rescind them and put it back the way it was.

If you have a deep cash reserve, you shouldn’t have any problem.

This is a big step that will help pay off the deficit. The trade deficit has been bankrupting us. The tariffs goal is to bring everyone to 0% or at least get close to free trade

One of the universal truths I’ve learned. Most people are weak.

That’s a shame for them.

Probably too late to start saving now.

You’ll figure it out.

Sounds like a resounding endorsement of Trump there....

And the estimates are anywhere from 50-70% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck at a given time.... I don't think it's gonna be fine

We survived an orchestrated effort to destroy our economy to remove Trump in 2020.

We'll survive this.

Having a deep cash reserve the last 4 years has been idiotic. Losing 8-10-% per year.

Some tariffs are needed and warranted but this roll out had no nuance and no strategy.

Moronic.

Signed,

A 3x Trump voter.

Since this doesn't apply to the majority of Americans I'd say that you might want to rethink things "being fine" if things go South.

A lot can happen in 4 years. There is a lot more downside risk to this than the pure economics of it.

Looking at how over leveraged people are with consumer debt might give you some insight as to whether or not most people have deep cash reserves

But you'd rather side track and bring up something completely irrelevant rather than face the truth. And the truth is most Americans don't have deep cash reserves.

You people are delusional about tariffs you’re fooling yourselves like fools gold . Trump is selling you this like he is the Nigerian Prince you desire people to suffer for four years it will take another four years to recover eight years.
Republicans blocked the Canadian Tariffs they should block the Mexico also my goodness .

Bro, Fauci didn’t receive any medal directly from Trump. Not any Trump. Take a step back and breathe every now and then.

I’m gonna predict you’ll find some incredible deals on used cars and property very soon. All those expensive watches people bought and can’t afford will be sold.

All the people in debt and over leveraged will be looking for a way out.

Get ready for the Fire Sale.
