Exclusive survey finds negative economic impacts felt across party lines as White House doubles down on tariffs
Seven in 10 Americans say Donald Trump’s tariffs have led to them paying higher prices, according to an exclusive new poll for the Guardian.
The Harris Poll survey presents Republicans with a major problem in the battle for the upcoming midterm elections. The majority of all voters (72%) believe Trump’s tariffs have had a negative rather than a positive impact and 67% said tariffs aren’t the right solution for improving the economy.
Yet Trump has made clear he wants to press ahead with more tariffs even after a supreme court ruling curbed many of the levies he introduced last year.
What the fuck? Weird… I was fairly certain it was supposed to maga
There’s that ~30% again that will lie their asses off for their golden calf.
And the other three are lying.
Or are buying those tariff claims?
News flash 3/10 Americans are so fucking stupid they don’t realize Tariffs are a tax they pay.
Probably the same ~30% Americans that voted for the Diapershitter-In-Chief.
Same 30% that is sucking the little pecker. Shocking.
So a third of the US is still dumb as fuck.
I’m pretty sure the Venn diagram between conservatives and the 3 in 10 that don’t think they are paying for PEDOnald’s taxes has a very high amount of overlap if not quite one circle laid atop another.
MAGA gonna MAGA
So true. Probably the same type that gets butthurt about “Obamacare” but loves their ACA. Or has said phrases like “get government hands off my Medicare”, etc…
That’s weird, because I’m pretty sure he’s cost 10 in 10 Americans money thanks to his regressive tax on imports.
As is traditional to point out with these polls: 30% of Americans are literally too stupid to function and entirely rely on Fox News to think for them.
Ah yes, the Free Thinkers™©® that only ever seem to think exactly what Fox news tells them to think.
Nah, Fox is too woke for a lot of them. They’ve switched to Newsmax or OAN.
Reactionary centrists: “I’m an independent!”
Also reactionary centrists: Proceeds to repeat conservative talking points and engages in conservative-style concern trolling on any given topic.
So I guess once the fuel-shortage-related cost increases hit, this might reach 8/10? Wonder what happens at 10/10? Still nothing?
So, another way to read that is that 3 out of 10 Americans still don’t know what a tariff is?
To be fair, I’m sure before Trump 2.0 it was closer to 6 out 10. I kinda knew what they were back in the day but now know more than I ever thought I would.
I’m pretty sure we were taught about them in 7th grade history classes, possibly even earlier.
By the way, Spanky raised taxes on imports in his first term, too:

For some reason, Biden kept many of them.
Anyone who has filled their tank knows.
As with all polls and stats about peoples beliefs/thoughts at least 3/10 people are blithering idiots at a minimum.
Oh come on, don’t sell them short, most of them are idiots and racists
GOP tariffs
Get it right.
