Tariffs Are Trump’s Toxic Ex

Tariffs Are Trump’s Toxic Ex—And He Still Can’t Quit Them

Trump’s obsession with tariffs is like that one ex who swears they’re the best thing that ever happened to you—but all they did was wreck your finances and ghost you when things got tough.

Remember when he slapped tariffs on everything that moved, promising it would punish China and revive U.S. industry? Fast-forward, and we got rising prices, pissed-off farmers, supply chain chaos, and a trade war that hurt us more than them. Spoiler: China is not paying  the bill—we are

And now, instead of learning from the mess, he’s back on track preaching the same tired gospel like it’s some kind of economic miracle. It’s not policy—it’s cosplay economics. And everyday Americans are still paying the price for his trade war fantasy.

Tariffs didn’t make America great again—they made groceries more expensive, exports harder, and global trust in the U.S. flinch. If this is the plan for 2025, brace yourself. Round two might be even dumber than the first.
