Are Trump's 2026 tariffs helping or hurting the US economy?

Rep. @BryanSteil voted in support of costly tariffs that are raising prices across the board. Whether you're Deb trying to make lasagna for your grandkids or just buying groceries for the week, grocery prices are out of control, and Republicans in Congress are making it worse. ht…

Big corporations can hire lobbyists to avoid paying tariffs, while small businesses go under. Tariff exemptions have become a highway for corruption. https://t.co/vRKnlIKIsA

My Column | Trump flirts with retired ideas, wages wars, weaponises tariffs, triggers a molecular contagion to send the world into high cost low growth trenches. Trumpflation. Export inflation, Outsource chaos. US breaks world pays @NewIndianXpress https://t.co/9keqY7iHUC https:/…

Let’s be real: He promised lower costs and more jobs. Instead? Tax breaks for billionaires and cuts to our healthcare. His reckless tariffs are raising prices on groceries, prescriptions, and essentials — costing families about $1,000 more a year. #SOTU https://t.co/Ys3GQWagHG

@FoxNews Raising tariffs isn’t just an economic policy—it’s a tax on every American family. Prices go up, supply chains get strained, and jobs aren’t “protected,” they’re threatened. Playing global chess with people’s groceries and paychecks isn’t strategy—it’s recklessness that …

@SpeakerJohnson We’re not getting any of that! We need every cent for: Gas $4.35 in AZ; Groceries prices ⬆️; Tariffs raising prices on everything we buy; U.S. military dying and wounded! tRump playing war like he plays golf - badly and cheating!

@MorningJoe #Trump is destroying this country economically, between war and tariffs the real economy is bleeding jobs, prices raising, gas, electricity, groceries, you name it-this move on #Iran has global economic implications. Bottom line #Trump has declared war on USA too.

Trump's tariffs have proved beyond doubt that corporate America can afford to pay higher taxes, @BobOnMarkets. The US urgently needs those tax dollars to restore its fiscal health https://t.co/PoWLCOxHwH

@WhiteHouse The White House shares nothing but propaganda. We are suffering from Trump’s insane politics. Tariffs are raising prices, causing small businesses to go under, and big businesses to layoff. We can’t afford healthcare. We can’t afford groceries. Trump is a failure. htt…

@SenatorBaldwin You were all for raising those costs when Biden slowed oil production with no benefit to US manufatury or jobs. The tariffs will promote vital manufacury and jobs and have already proven to do so. Groceries and gas prices are down.

Nothing says “America First” like raising prices at home and blaming everyone else. Truly genius economics. Raising tariffs because your feelings got hurt isn’t strategy, it’s a tantrum with a Sharpie. Congrats on making groceries and gas more expensive and calling it “winning.”

Every problem facing the U.S. evaporates overnight w/Trump impeachment. Hostile trade war/tariffs hurting Americans/allies, favoring our enemy Russia, wide-spread corruption & oligarchy, ignoring the Constitution, starting illegal wars, hiding pedophiles…all gone & Trump …

@DianeMcKenna22 @atrupar He started up by raising food prices when he put tariffs in place. In 2024 of pot roast of 2 lb cost about $15. I can remember when you could buy a 5 lb roast for that size but now groceries only display 2 lb roasts and if you want something bigger you ha…
