No doubt Trump clearly ran on the idea of equalizing tariffs throughout the world. It is only fair that what one country charges us for our goods, the same should apply to them as well. The European Union, Canada, and Mexico have been ripping us off for years.
Indeed, our Auto workers, Farmers, and many others will benefit from these new Tariffs. The Republicans are in support of Trump’s ideas, however the Democrats are in major meltdown.
Unfortunately, The stock markets are in freefall from the concerns of big business, and although I believe temporary, many investors are extremely upset. Even this conservative pundit is wondering if Trump has overplayed his hand??
If we can be patient, I am hopeful The Tariffs will ultimately make Americans wealthy and safe again. Stay tuned as the economy rolls along in this new world.
As always, your feedback is welcome and appreciated.
Sincerely yours,
JUDSON Bennett-Coastal Network
