One day we will wake to his obituary :-)

The states that would get hit hardest by Donald Trump's proposed tariffs are Republican strongholds or ones that could determine the election's outcome, a new analysis found.

The GOP presidential candidate has proposed tariffs of 60% on Chinese imports and 10% to 20% on goods imported from all other nations.


The tariffs would take the biggest chunk off the gross domestic products, or GDPs, of Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mississippi — all reliably GOP states in presidential elections, according to a new report from the Tax Policy Center. Illinois, Wisconsin, and Michigan followed. The latter two are considered swing states.

"Tariffs, they do matter," said Robert McClelland, a senior fellow at the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center and one of the researchers. "It could definitely affect economies, it could affect them in a variety of ways. And it's not just obvious which states are the most affected."

That would serve them right.
 
Tariffs are good for the country. It gives businesses a choice. Build here creating jobs in the US, or pay a price for it. I remember when democrats used to support good paying jobs here in the US. But, now they climb into bed with the Cheney's.

They love exporting jobs and endless wars. My how times have changed for the dems.

I don't give a shit what a bunch of academics who have never worked think. You are using a logical fallacy, but appealing to an argument from authority. You have no idea if these so called economists truly know what they are talking about.

But here is what I do know. When Trump was President, he imposed all manner of tariffs and what you claim did not come to pass, otherwise you would present THAT as fact instead of your fallacious argument.

Jobs were created. Costs came down. Remember when democrats cared about creating jobs for American citizens instead of foreigners? Good times

But they just made things worse. How about that? If they had done a good job, Joe would still be on the ticket... or at least someone who could win...what a mess they've created...
