The Reality about Tariffs

Now who was (is) right? --May be an image of text that says 'Tariff revenue revenue rose in July Monthly government revenue from customs duties and certain excise taxes $30 billion July2025 July 2025- $29.6 billion 20 10 2021 2022 2023 2023 2024 2025 Note: Monthly totals are calculated by aggregating data from daily reports.

I'm still paying income taxes and taxes of all kinds AND stuff is more expensive.  Where is all this 'revenue' going and who is benefiting?  Not me.

 You sound like a liberal who bitches and moans because you have not received the perceived benefits that you think should have immediately gotten. By the way, the revenue generated will be used to lower the national debt. If you want to legitimately complain, then complain about what the brain dead Biden DemocRats did that caused inflation and made everything more expensive. Did you actually think that President Trump would immediately be able to address and correct all of the damage DemocRats did to America the past 4 years in just 7 months?

Even MAGA fools--and that includes Davey Dog, despite his lies--realize that the revenue generated from Trumpiffs is covering only a portion of the shortfall caused by all the tax breaks for the rich. Minus two trillion.

 

They yeep yeep yeep about deficits but fall silent when Trump creates them.

That's a limp defense, Davey Dog. The budget deficit is real, and it's Trump's fault. Period.
