In the US, 52% of the population supported import tariffs when Trump took office.
That's now only 40%. They're slowly beginning to realize that Trump misrepresented the role of import tariffs.
But 40% still think it's a good idea. How blind do you have to be economically to still fail to see that the import tariffs Trump is implementing aren't working?
It doesn't help that someone like Scott Bessent, who should know better, shamelessly spouts nonsense just to avoid offending Trump.
Apparently, things have to get much worse in the US before people realize that the economic underpinnings of American society are being sawed off by Trump and his cronies.
Is it purely for the self-enrichment of Trump and other billionaires like Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and George Soros, or is it at Putin's behest?
How much worse could an agent of Putin as US president make things without outing himself too openly as an agent of Putin?
