Tariffs are working exactly as intended—forcing foreign automakers to slash prices and absorb costs instead of passing them to Americans. Japan’s export prices to the U.S. plummeting? That’s leverage in action. And $20B in June tariff revenue? Proof that D.C. can finally make global competitors pay their fair share. The chaos had a purpose: resetting trade dynamics to prioritize U.S. interests. Now foreign manufacturers are scrambling to keep market share by eating the tariffs, not taxpayers. The result? More revenue, protected consumers, and a trade strategy that actually delivers.
@zerohedge At least half of all that should go straight into Bitcoin.
@zerohedge Tariffs hit a record $20B in June ,a heavy price paid by consumers and trade alike.
@zerohedge It's impressive that the number is still going up. I thought the experts said imports would collapse.
@zerohedge It’s weird this is never mentioned by anybody in the msm, right? Or is that just me?
@zerohedge record tariffs means record stealth taxes on everyone downstream
@zerohedge The economy is going to tank but at least the govt got another 20B...
@zerohedge Once we hit $146 billion a month then we can pay down the debt, lol
@zerohedge 240B is more than enough to run the federal gov’t.
@zerohedge The people cheering this don’t realize they’re the ones paying for it 😂
@zerohedge And yet prices for consumers have barely changed, if at all. In fact many prices have gone down! Funny how that works. It’s almost as if a Billionaire maybe, just maybe, understands economics better than keyboard warriors on Twitter who still live in their mother’s basement.
@zerohedge Ever since Trump passed the first round of his tariffs prices the CPI has increased by about 1.2% in ~12 weeks.
@zerohedge And yet we are still running record deficits
@zerohedge Great, that covers toilet paper for the government for a month…
@zerohedge Zero federal incoming tax coming for those who made under $150k annually
@zerohedge Let's get that revenue down to ZERO. The point isn't to raise taxes, the point is to RESHORE American industry so that people buy American (and pay no tariffs). If not, this chart is America's economic future (but for everything):
@zerohedge $20B，These funds all come from businesses. These businesses earn meager profits but have to pay high tariffs.
@zerohedge I thought this was going to fix the $37T deficit? Or so we were told. $20B is a drop in the bucket.
@zerohedge Anyone know where the tariff data can be pulled from?
@zerohedge so many ppl pissed off right now…
@zerohedge Nice but remember, the tariffs are mostly for the purpose of bringing jobs and factories back.
@zerohedge All paid by USA taxpayers, at the point of sale.
@zerohedge Americans struggling before the tariffs, now really getting the shaft! Like kicking a man when he is down!
@zerohedge Only two more years of this and we will get close to getting that Ukraine money back
@zerohedge and a record low for the USD. Can anyone explain me while th currency can not even recovery for a few days after all that lost?
