    It will make things more expensive for consumers. But workers will have better wages, due to there being more jobs.

    The economy is a set of feedback loops. Kind of like the brain. Trump’s tariffs will make things more expensive in the same way quitting cocaine will make everything harder to do.

      The tariffs only increase US worker wages if they are significant enough to promote domestic manufacturing. If we still can’t produce the widget at home for the same or less expensively, then all we’ve done is create a federal sales tax on Chinese goods.

      Ah look, an ignorant traitor supporter spewing the same bullshit their rapist fuhrer tells them to parrot.

      No wonder you people fall for that demented felon with zero real plan. You’re too dumb to realize you’re being played.

      Fuck your wannabe dictator, you anti-freedom, anti-american trash.

            I am neither one of these things and I have no maga post history. You should do less drugs, they are not intended for 10 year olds.

            It is good to know you were unable to argue against my post so you had to go to my post history hoping to find something to attack me. And then you didn’t, so you had to make stuff up. Well, life is hard sometimes :D

              Your post was regurgitated bullshit so no need to argue against the talking points that the enemies of the United States have taught you to parrot.

                  It is good to know you were unable to argue against my post so you had to resort to your default childish behaviour.

                  Btw, quite obvious now that you aren’t American, so kindly shut your misinformation spreading face about our elections.

                    You can repeat what you read? Good job?

                    Btw, quite obvious now that you aren’t American,

                    You even decided to read what I wrote before you started your random word generator. You are making progress.

                    so kindly shut

                    Kindly kiss my ass, moron
