Donald Trump gets bad news about his tariff plan from Americans in new poll

Summary

A new WalletHub poll reveals that 74% of Americans believe Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs will worsen inflation, which remains a major concern for most households.

Trump’s plan includes significant tariffs—up to 60% on Chinese goods and 20% on other imports—to protect American jobs and address issues like fentanyl production and border security.

Experts warn these tariffs could increase consumer prices, with middle-income families potentially losing $2,500 annually.

Analysts caution Trump’s plans may face political hurdles in Congress despite his economic-focused campaign promises.

  • Another facet of Trump's America: A million news stories about polls showing the majority of Americans hate Trumpian policies, officials, candidates, etc.

    And none of them will matter. First, because these are polls and not elections. And second, because simple majorities alone are not sufficient to influence policy in America anymore.

    • Also, who are they out here polling? I've never been polled about shit. I got a lot of opinions for these mfers but somehow they never come around asking me about it. About anything.
