Trump policies will bring inflation and job loss spikes by July that likely will power a shift from the far right. At least I hope so.
The big problem with tariffs is not the inflation creeping into the economy. It is corporate decisions to scale back anticipating a drop in demand. In order words panic everywhere all at once. So inflation and job loss. There won’t be headlines as Trump controls the press. But the willl be the American experience of seeing the family and neighbors loss jobs.
Of course the Trump administration could pull back and admit they were wrong. Want to bet on that?
