Great exposition. Makes total sense and exposes the lie of tarriffs

Ole buddy acts like none of our presidents have implemented effective tariffs before. Exaggerated blanket statements make for a good, provocative video i guess lol

All the crap voldemort sells is made where? Hmmm, certainly not in this country. The Handmaid's Tale is getting closer.

Tariffs are bad long term

When i was in university, the examples of protectionism was third world developing country's smaller firms against American companies!

The rich get richer, the poor get poorer. Until the working class decides to stop hating each other, and start hating the ruling class, this will only get worse.

Knowledge is power.

Criminal / rapist becomes American leader ! Stupid nation with little legitimacy ? Investigate ? Only happens in America ?.

Well let's see, our economy was great with tarrifs before and then tanked after tarrifs were ended and income tax created. I say let's go back to tarrifs.

"Deflation" or, as they called it in 1929, a Great Depression.

When it comes to Trump, EVERYTHING is a grift. Those industries willing to pay for lobbyists to make backdoor deals and donations will suddenly find “loopholes.” Those that don’t… sorry. Those who think this is about “restoring American jobs” all I can say is, you’ve been had. The sad part is he doesn’t care if he craters the economy, as long as he and his inner circle make money. America, you’ve been conned by a conman. The difference though is that he TOLD you he was going to con you, and you let him do it anyway.

You are going to lose the Trump supporter when you mentioned math, logic and history.

Why not just help American startups by making it more easy to obtain? Like Kamala Harris said she would do.

Thanks for proving Donald Trump is an ifiot and his voters are as well

But dont the import business pay for the tariffs you left that out and then the business owner raises the prices and yhe consumer pays for it

Americans won’t work cheaper Than Other countries such as Vietnam. So products developed internally won’t be cheaper IMP

MIGA, Make Inflation Great Again.

I would never buy a ford over a Toyota/Honda 😂😂

Is there a middle ground because your examples seem more on the extreme that foreign countries decide to not do business. They still make money with tariffs and will continue to do business, we get income, protect our business, and build our economy. As we find balance we reduce tariffs and do great business where the whole world wins!

The tariffs will of cause be product selective as in EU right now not general on a specific country. So you are talking nonsense.

WHAT IS THE ANSWER THEN????

"You're going to go with the FORD" uuuuhhhh no, sir, I'd rather walk 😭👍

Elon will build it.

"Importing to"?? Better to say "exporting to" instead. "Importing from" and "exporting to".

No mention of retaliation tariffs on exports?

This bring back the memory of CCR - Bad Moon Rising.

Talk about 40 million Americans losing their health insurance, or you sons, daughters, nieces, grandchildren, incurring monstrous debt for an education, or your parents and grandparents losing medicare and social security. benefits, or you and your wife not being able to afford childcare. What is a country for? For making a minority wealthy or for taking care of people's needs?

Presidents don’t control the price of things

I think everyone is missing the goal Trump has. He wants the companys to build it in America. Toyota has factories that employ Americans in the United States. This is the vision. Build it in America. Also, seems like all the Kamala supporters forgot the supply chain issues we had just a few years ago. During that time we saw massive inflation. Final point, to everyone in the comments with TDS, people want lower taxes and more take home pay.

America will reap what it has sown they voted for fascism in the month of remembrance millions died fighting fascism. Ignorance was the problem. No one will not be affected unless you are a billionaire

But the original income tax fell almost entire on high incomes; Now it largely falls on middle and working class incomes. That is what is "horrific" about it today.

Apparently people don't read American history Hoover brought America back from the Great depression with tariffs tariff stimulate the economy in almost every instance plus they can be used as bargaining chips don't believe the lying media cuz that's all they know is lies

What is to prevent domestic manufacturers from raising their production prices to the tariff price? And of course if there is no domestic manufacturer, these will not simply spring up overnight to supply the same product, even at the tariff price. Here the critical element will be the availability of manufacturing labor at a wage level sufficient to start up a manufacturer, and US manufacturing wages are pretty low these days. But here Trump wants to deport the cheapest pool of labor, undocumented immigrants. This will exacerbate the relative shortage of cheap labor. The only solution to that will be a deep recession that spikes up the unemployment rate, expanding the pool of workers desperate to work at any wage.

Don't worry American are rich, they can buy things no matter how expensive it is.

This is sounding more like a massive con to allow them to usher in corruption and theft from the system. Worse quality goods, lower standard of living, less income. It sounds like they are creating a system that conditions us to live with much less so that they can steal more. Their greed has no bounds.

Americans are amoung the largest consumers on Earth and they are used to relatively low prices for these goods as a direct consequence of cheap imports

Trump and his buddies will game the tariffs. They plan to sell off our government for profit.

Excellent point about the income tax system was an improvement of the pre-existing tariff based system.

Trump's gonna construct the biggest possible government; a totalitarian one.

you sound like a liberal. so sad

You are right lets promote slave labor, child labor, countries that do not believe in civil rights, countries that wreck the environment, just so we can buy a plastic piece of trash that will break or stop working in a few years that we didn't need in the first place.

We don’t need all that crap from Walmart, Target, and Home Depot!! Americans are the worst with disposable everything! And look at all of the holiday crap! I’m sorry, but we can do better and do without.

Dang we are cooked smart companies in other countries with high tariffs we will not have there products anymore.

a rush of panic buys will occur on china before it takes place... China will be booming rght now

So you basically said yes the prices will go up because people will only be able to buy a small quantity and a lower quality. So your answer is yes the idea is s t u p i d.

Nice try but the US doesn't make anything anymore except for cat videos

Trump is surrounding himself with Wallstreet banksters AGAIN and it will be worse than you can imagine get ready for outrageous inflation and wars

XYZ being a quasi monopoly will also increase the prices for its goods which in return can fuel inflation.

you also forgot to mention how american business's will try and match as closely as possible the sales prices of tarriff'd products in order to capitalize on the increase of income with the lower manufacturing cost in the US.

What about the XYZ product going up as well? Why would I, an American hammer maker sit there with a $5 hammer when the Chinese hammer is $10? I can sell my hammer for $8 and still be cheaper than the Chinese hammer. GRAB THOSE ANKLES!!!!
