Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.

Summary

A new Harris Poll shows growing concern among Americans about Trump's tariff policies, with 72% now worried compared to 61% in January.

Despite Trump's claim that tariffs are "pouring money" into the country, 66% believe the U.S. economy will take years to recover from these measures.

The poll reveals a partisan divide: 90% of Democrats and 57% of Republicans express concern about tariffs.

Trump has already imposed additional tariffs on Chinese imports and all steel and aluminum, while threatening "reciprocal" tariffs on global imports.

As a Canadian, I’ve stopped importing saddles for bicycles from any US distributor. Even if the products aren’t made in the U.S., I’ve boycotted giving any single American 1 penny, even though I currently have no tariffs to pay on said products.

Trumps the world’s biggest fucking idiot, and not only is he hurting American citizens on the products coming into the country, he’s also hurting American citizens who no longer have external markets.

In turn, those companies I deal with out of Europe are now finding me ways to purchase their products directly from them instead, giving me even less reason to ever buy the products from an American ever again.

It’s a triple whammy. U.S. is loosing my money, Americans are loosing more of their money because they have to eat the tariff costs, and my money is now being diverted to Europe for the same product, without the American middle man and logistics.

All because a narcissist rapist Nazi and his African sugar daddy are robbing America into the ground.
