US Income Tax Revenue: $2.2 trillion US Imports: $3.8 trillion This would be a $1 trillion annual handout to the top 1%, paid for by massive inflation in consumer goods, something like 55%-60%. Breaking the economy to give the richest even more, that's the Republican way.

It would be worse than that — if french wine goes up by say 60% in price, people are going to stop buying french wine, making imports go down. Meaning more money needs to be raised. Also, countries would retaliate, killing U.S. exports.

Wait, I think you mean, "Breaking the economy to give the richest even more AND to blame inflation on Biden to get Trump elected and secure more exploitation." There. Fixed it for you.

poor people think taxes are holding them back. Their logic loop is - one day being rich-er from not having to pay taxes. -can't fight the wealthy corporations they one day hope to be They see that scheme & think- no taxes is good. They don't see the collapse of infrastructure, schools, ...life.

Trump proposes middle and lower class tax increases that will cause inflation at 50-60% per year. It’s the message that the Dems need to hammer along with abortion from now to November.

The rubes will hear the first part (no tax!) and tune out the second part (massive inflation).

Am I the only person who remembers we had a whole TRADE WAR WITH CHINA during his administration? I was reading a "no, things weren't great under Trump" articles and it didn't come up. I guess it got lost in the deluge of awful all those years.

Thank you for summing it up
In Germany, we have EXACTLY the same:finance minister (we were warned against him by Nobel Prize economists) and oppo MAGA(CDU)leader :
They'd rather penalise soc. benefits users and save 100 million EUR than use #MillionaireTax and get 25 BN EUR.
Stupid&vile to no end.

Dump doesn't know the first thing about economics, tariffs or tax policy. But he senses this would be good for oligarchs' taxes & net income so ... nevermind whether it would massively disrupt the economy, have unpredictable but clearly negative consequences and hurt most Americans, which it would.

while the economy goes down in flames under a Republican president for the third time in my adult life, it WOULD be sorta amusing to watch all the screeching about inflation magically disappear on 1/20/25

I wish he would campaign on zero income taxes for hedge fund dickheads and billionaires in exchange for making everything everyone buy’s dramatically more expensive and killing a bunch of jobs in the process.
