Kevin can't afford to take that bet. What else would he do if he wasn't on the LVA site all day?

If you want to take out your crayons, though, simply calculate US imports from the tariffed countries (using 2024 figures), multiply the amounts by the individual tariffs, and divide by the portion of GDP that imports represent. That's already been done by dozens of economists, but I'll let you come up with your own answer.
Here is the answer.
$14.3T GDP; imports are 25% or $3.575T. 10% tariff is $357B or 2.5% of GDP
I agree with the prediction that if all the Trumpiffs remain in force, annualized inflation for the month of December will exceed 10%. By then, the Trumpiffs will have fully crippled the US economy.
Stupid kevin (in the past kevin has claimed to be an economics major) has been screaming about runaway inflation for 6 months and it hasn't happened.
I said it would happen when the Trumpiffs took effect. The argument "it hasn't happened yet" is Tom-stupid.
Only a small percentage of the Trumpiffs are only 10%. Using that number to evaluate the overall impact is Tom-dishonest.
But go on spreading your butt-cheeks for Trump. Everything he does is wonderful, because he's a stable genius.
Jesus, Tom, do you actually believe that??

I'm not; I check in about every 2-3 days but you are definitely hear 24/7.

When they were announced you said 10% inflation by the summer and an immediate recession. Neither has happened.

Actually most of them are 10%. The expected average will be around 13%. Stupid kevin
There has been steady inflation on consumer goods since APril and its been increasing each month. THat will only get worse as importers burn through the inventory they loaded up on in the Spring. ....unless Trump fires the person who reports that data too.
The country has paid over 100 billion in tarrifs since Spring. Some is passed to the consumers...some is eaten up by the importers. Regardless its a 100 billion dollar tax increase in less than six months.
Goldman Sachs today predicts it will be alot more obvious this quarter. Trump shit his pants as you would expect.

See you in 6 months for your apology for being ignorant.
I've said this many times. Trump doesn't want tariffs, but instead fair trade. His negotiation tool is tariffs. It will cause bumps along the way, but America will be in much better shape in a decade because of Trump policies....and then Democrats will claim that the great economy is their doing.
