Summary
Donald Trump is poised to impose massive import tariffs on goods from Canada, Mexico, and China, effectively raising taxes on U.S. households by an estimated $3,000 annually.
Unlike past tax increases that targeted the wealthy, these tariffs disproportionately impact low- and middle-income workers.
While Trump claims the measures address immigration and fentanyl concerns, experts argue they serve as a revenue source to offset tax cuts for the rich.
Critics contend that Trump’s tariffs lack a clear industrial strategy and primarily burden American consumers.
Exactly, I wasn’t so much shocked as I was surprised Harris lost. I mean how can so many people be that dense as to vote for Trump?
“People keep acting like a trump win will be the end of democracy, but thats just hyperbole. He wont end democracy.”
-bad faith trolls
No he will not end democracy as such, it’s in USA he will end it.
That’s what I said to myself when he won to calm myself down.
What gets me is that there were millions who couldn’t be bothered to vote against Trump.
imho Biden/Harris shouldn’t have had to do anything whatever. People should have just shown up and said ‘no’ to anotehr Trump term.
No democrat should have had to do anything. just a few minutes of any Trump campaign speech should have been enough for him to lose most votes. Have his groupies ever actually listened to him?
Absolutely, being normal should beat a flaming sociopath. But malignant narcissism and sociopathy have become virtues in USA, as the ultimate symbol of freedom. Because they only think of themselves.
Good thing most Americans can find an extra three grand in their couch cushions. /s

That’s not for them. Vance left a tip for the couch when he finished.
Oh no no no. It’s of course someone else’s fault. Harris not good enough, blah blah blah. Definitely don’t blame people too lazy or uninterested to vote. That’s definitely not their fault and theyre definitely not complicit in everything going on.
Plenty of blame to go around
Take the upvote.
