Sweeping tariffs are expected to raise the cost of cars, electronics, metals, lumber, pharmaceuticals and other products from overseas. But President Trump and his advisers are betting that it can sell an inflation-weary public on a provocative idea: Cheap stuff is not the American dream.

LOWER PRICES
What is he delivering? HIGHER PRICES.

Interesting idea, Trump betting on the US public wanting higher costs.
The article should explain that US goods will stay in step with imported goods. A reminder - when tariffs were removed from card in NZ the price of all cars, even used cars, fell in lockstep.
"Trump’s Economic Promises Timeline"
“Starting on day one, we will end inflation and make America affordable again, to bring down the prices of all goods.”

am I doing this right
sorry it’s my first day
Yet trump was allowed to lie during the campaign & say he’d ’order grocery prices down’ 🤦🏽♀️
He was allowed to take credit for obama’s economy he was handed
He was allowed to lie & say he’d cut gas prices in half- it’s been 3.20-3.30/ gallon where I live
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to renew the subscription to my car's airbag.
GTFOH
tell them that America doesn't like cheap stuff
Make your voices heard THIS Sat, April 5!
They were lied to by trump, the media knows, trump knows, we know- but somehow idiots found ‘I’ll order grocery prices to go down’ & ‘drill baby drill’ convincing ideas
After tariffs, expect Mump to default on our debt. So that they can renegotiate with Japan and China as if they were "banks" settling for "pennies on the dollar."
The U.S. excels at abusing the concepts of capitalism.
Example: Coffee. Putting a 40% tariff on coffee isn't going to "onshore" its production. What tiny bit we can grow in HI, we already are.

As if the working class has been paneling their walls with flat screens like Fahrenheit 451.
TVs are the new avacado toast apparently
He’s going to ignore the Constitution and the future presidential election and stay in power.
Drop the Mickey D’s and switch to champagne and caviar!
No way they close this deal.
Fuck you and the horse you rode in on
Ya think Sulz didn't notice this?
NYT realized that liberals got addicted to reading their horror stories about trumps "CRAZY SHIT EVERY DAY!!!" show during his first term & made bank.
So, they then did everything in their power to get him elected again.
Fucking idiots.
This a parody, right? Because I remember what NYT has been writing about the American public’s feelings about inflation these past several years.
Fucking clowns.
This is why I cancelled my subscription.
Thanks a lot MAGAshitheads!
Y'all biases are so ridiculously obvious.
Utter fucking failure of a media outlet. Like a shitty version of the NY Post with a fancier font.

Trump America: America is the land of poverty.
Some of the parts go across the border multiple times, getting tariffed every time.
And don’t even get me started on pharmaceuticals 🤬
It’s just a bunch of really stupid people pretending to be journalists.
Even given Trump's snake-oil salesmanship skills, convincing Extreme MAGA that they're not entitled to exactly what they want – ample jobs, no POC *and* cheap everything – is multiple orders of magnitude more difficult.
