I'm an oldster who remembers the humane advice of my godfather, a Connecticut veteran of the WW1 carnage who became a Yankee preacher in the Ouachitas of west Arkansas.
Our Orange Idiot loves playing his Game of Tariffs and Trade with scarcely a thought on how his actions affect average Americans…farmers especially. $40 billions to his friend Milei who is stealing America’s soy customers. Plus a promise to import Argentine beef.
1/2 Milei wins big in Argentina, boosted by 1. Trump’s $40 bn of financial assistance, 2. Trump’s promise to subsidize American imports Argentine beef, 3. Trump’s tariff war with China that persuaded China to buy an estimated $5bn of Argentine soybeans instead of U.S. soybeans.
Reagan says tariffs are bad because they increase consumer prices and costs. Donald Trump says tariffs are good because tariffs increase government revenues. We are talking about the impact of American tariffs on our jobs and inflation. Who do you believe : Reagan or Trump?
