Wait, I thought tariffs weren’t the reason prices have gone up

Why would they need to do this when manufacturers are bringing so much production back to the US?
old news..."financial experts" already determined that tariffs added 1% to inflation....
COME ON MAN! Tariffs USED to not increase prices when Trump told you they didn't. Now they do and Trump is all over this to reduce prices for everyone.
if this is aimed at me, you've got the wrong guy. I have always taken the position that tariffs both increased prices and contributed to inflation. Still believe it.
How many numpties said it was the foreign country who paid the tariffs, yet the government is refunding American companies to the tune of billions?
Trump admin has been tweaking tariff policy for the benefit of America from the beginning.
We all know you're rubber and we're glue. Responsibility sticks to us as it bounces off of you. We'd never expect you to admit you were wrong Ned
well, you're incorrect. I have been wrong and have admitted it...I'm rubber..are we in 7th grade?
But, do yourself a favor and go back and look at my posts on tariffs...am not a fan, and have not been a fan

Not sure why anyone still tries to protect this administrations incompetence. It only makes you look incompetent as well.
I was told by tons of maga on this board that tariffs would reduce inflation. I was told I didn't know what I was talking about when I said it would raise prices. weird.
That’s nice. Now do 2 years ago…
Oh great look what loser is back. He still thinks calling people 8th grade slurs is funny and cute.
Here are some more tariffs for you.

Great. The US companies can be refunded again. What a joke.
That disapproval rate is what will really kill the 80 year old. Those are people who actively think he's a worthless president. And those numbers are 60+% of the population.
Take a look at Chris Waller's recent remarks, which i think are pretty fair here. Tariff impacts were one time and relatively fleeting. Direct and indirect oil price effects associated with the continuing war in the ME may be another matter entirely.
not necessarily. remember, the supreme court didn't throw out tariffs, just the means trump used to implement them. There are other, legal means to implement them.
I'm not implying that I support tariffs or that any new tariffs won't add to the cost to consumer, or that they won't be inflationary, just that there are ways to do it that won't result in new refunds.
In his defense, he only finished the 6th grade so he thinks he's showing his intellect.
Should we look up your claims that tariffs would lower prices?
