@rickylahey9248 The Mango Mussolini made a campaign promise to lower prices day one. As any American who has gone shopping for eggs lately knows: Prices aren’t any lower than they were on Inauguration Day.

I have a trade deficit with Costco and Walmart. I buy from them but they don't buy anything from me.

@raygarcia6142 Neither you nor Trump understand trade deficits. The United States buys energy from Canada. That's expensive. "The US trade deficit is high primarily because Americans tend to consume more than they produce, leading to a higher demand for imported goods, which is often attributed to a low domestic savings rate and a strong US dollar that makes foreign goods cheaper compared to domestically produced ones; this imbalance between imports and exports results in a trade deficit where the US buys more goods from other countries than it sells to them." A simple Google search provided the answer.

@raygarcia6142 Blame Mr. Art of the Deal. Trump praised the USMCA in 2020 as the “best agreement we’ve ever made” and lauded it for replacing the “nightmare” North American Free Trade Agreement ratified under former President Bill Clinton, calling it the “worst trade deal ever made.”

@raygarcia6142 I understand tariffs better than Trump. Trump thinks that the exporting country pays the tariffs. Importers pay the tariffs and then pass that cost to the consumer. Get ready to pay more for everything that contains steel and aluminum.

@raygarcia6142 Trump is definitely not a rocket scientist. President Trump has insisted that his new tariffs on America's largest trading partners will not increase prices for Americans.

@raygarcia6142 "Prior to taking office in 2016, Trump had blasted the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and negotiations began in August 2017 when he was in the White House to carve out a new deal with Canada and Mexico, which remained underway by spring 2018 when Trump announced the tariffs on May 31, 2018. Canada announced its own retaliatory tariffs on roughly $16.6 billion worth of steel, aluminum and hundreds of other products from the U.S., which also included things like maple syrup, shaving products, ketchup and even coffee. By October 2018, a new NAFTA had been negotiated, the Canada-U.S.-Mexico-Agreement (CUSMA) — which the U.S. refers to as the USMCA — but it still took until May 2019 for an agreement to be reached to lift the tariffs on both sides. That agreement officially took effect in July 2020 and was ratified after tariffs were lifted." Reuters

@raygarcia6142 "An iconic 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' clip is going viral as Trump rolls out more tariff plans In the 1986 coming-of-age movie, Bueller's teacher, played by a famously monotone Ben Stein, recounts the impact of high tariffs on the US economy after the Great Depression to a classroom of zoned-out students. In the scene, Bueller's economics teacher explains the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, a Republican-backed law enacted in 1930 that raised tariffs on imported goods. It was intended to help the US recover from the Great Depression. Instead, it caused countries to implement retaliatory tariffs and sunk the US economy deeper as both exports and imports decreased. The clip has struck a chord among people on social media worried about the economy under the tariffs Trump has proposed. Economists have said that they would increase prices and inflation and that many companies would pass the costs on to consumers." Business Insider
