Trump tariffs wreak havoc at home, Americans cry over price rise​

Despite promises to lower costs and make America affordable again, Donald Trump's tariffs and tax policies are driving up grocery and electricity prices in the US. This is adding hundreds of dollars to the household expenses of Americans. Experts warn the trend could worsen, hitting low-and middle-income families hardest.


 
It is hilarious as one by one whether it is Epstein, inflation, Ukraine, etc, etc, all the things the Magats pretended to hate about Biden and his admin they are now ok with Trump doing or making worse because somehow 'whatabout Biden' makes it ok.

So they never expected Trump to fix the things they claimed to hate and want him to do them even more because 'whatabout Biden'.

Is it any wonder why...

It's truly sad that so many fell for Trump's lies, seeing that Crazy Trump is well known for not telling the truth.

Inflation in 2025, lower than 2024, and getting lower.


Stop lying.

U.S. economy expanded 3.3% in Q2, with growth even stronger than initially thought​



  • Gross domestic product rose at a 3.3% annualized pace in the April-through-June period, the Commerce Department reported.
  • The reading was better than the initial 3.0% estimate as well as the 3.1% Dow Jones consensus forecast, as consumer spending helped push the number higher.

The U.S. economy grew at a pace that was faster than expected in the second quarter as consumers and businesses held up against tariff volatility.

Gross domestic product rose at a 3.3% annualized pace in the April-through-June period, the Commerce Department reported Thursday in its second estimate for the most encompassing measure of economic activity. The reading was better than an initial 3.0% estimate as well as the 3.1% Dow Jones consensus forecas




Consumer spending, which rose by 1.6% compared with an initial 1.4% estimate, helped push the number higher.

Importantly, a measure called final sales to private domestic purchasers jumped 1.9%, up from the previous figure of 1.2%. Federal Reserve officials watch that metric closely as an indication of demand and sales that focuses on activity within U.S. borders, an especially important measure considering the uncertain impact of President Donald Trump’s tariffs.

The GDP number also reflected the unusual impact of the tariffs as they related to trade numbers.

Imports, which subtract from GDP, tumbled 29.8% in the quarter after companies stockpiled ahead of Trump’s April 2 “liberation day” announcement. The figure was a bit less than the previous estimate of 30.3%.

At the same time, exports, which add to GDP, fell by 1.3%, compared with the previous estimate of -1.8%. Taking the figures together, net exports added nearly 5 percentage points to the Q2 total.



~ Inflation-related estimates were little changed from the initial reading. Core personal consumption expenditures prices, which exclude the volatile food and energy categories, rose 2.5%, unchanged from the prior figure, while the headline PCE price index edged lower to 2%, in line with the Fed’s inflation goal.

Stop the fucking LIES.
 
Response from Magats will be twofold.
Who is Magats?

First will be to deny it and lie while saying prices where they are, are down.
You are correct that I will deny Cypress' misinformation, as should you, but you're too busy being totally gullible. Price are down; not by much but they are down a little. I now see that you don't know the difference between high prices and inflation, and that you are going to deny that Joe Biden's handlers handed us the high prices that had to be lowered.

If you are interested in being educated on the fundamentals, let me know.

Second will be to use a 'whataboutism' as a way to say 'we are ok with increasing inflation because whatabout Biden'.
No, my second step will be to offer guidance on how to construct a sentence and how to express a point.
 
The Fed has a dual mandate

1) encourage inflation - at around 2%

2) maximize employment

the Magats that pretend inflation is down are simply stupid. They will look at a blue sky and tell you it is red. inflation is not going to go down - it is a tool for the spending programs - and Trump likes to spend almost as much as liberals do
 
Trump won by flat-out lies. He told his followers exactly what they wanted to hear. He knew he could not deliver almost everything he promised. He has no problem lying. It's what he meant by "winning".

so you excluded the KEY THINGS you blamed Biden for (Food (eggs), price of gas) to say inflation is down. :rofl2:
