Trump’s tariffs are not going over well with his base
www.brookings.edu
Americans are increasingly becoming weary of President Trump's tariff policies as economic blowback looms.
  • Trump’s tariffs are facing opposition at home, especially from young adults, non-college voters, individuals earning less than $50,000 per year, and Hispanics.
  • A CNN/SSRS poll released on March 12 found that 61% of Americans, and 78% of young adults, disapprove of the way Trump is handling tariffs.
  • Although Americans favor higher tariffs on China, they oppose imposing them on longtime friends and allies.

      While you’re at it, take a look at this beachfront property I have for sale. On Mars. Elon Musk is planning on sending one of his rockets up there soon, so you’d better get in on the ground floor on this one!

    The problem is that not a single one of those voters will reflect on what led to them being tricked by this man and not only learn absolutely nothing, but continue to claim he’s better than anything evil other party could put up.
