Personally I saw a major tax hike due to Trump tax law (no, I do not live in a blue State), and now I am seeing another tax hike in form of tariffs.

Oh, everything is "massive" isn't it? Hurts "the poor" doesn't it?

You may see a "massive" tax increase; thousands of other other people might see a job.
Pay up, I say. We have shipped far too many jobs to other countries.

And you, your household and those of millions of others have benefited by way of lower prices, more selection, greater availability and more money in your pocket to spend on other goods and services.
in other words, your standard of living has been greatly increased as a result of trade.

Putting tariffs on cheap/slave labor is the first step to rebuilding domestic manufacturing. With that campaign promise delivered, he has some credibility to promise more for reelection. No free lunch, China will accelerate their move away from the US$ for international currency. That kicks up our inflation.

I know you did not mean that literally, but never underestimate hypocrisy and ignorance. And I bet you Trump is getting a cut.

According to some, he is the second coming of Christ, and they even erected a billboard stating the fact.

Making the majority of people forcibly poorer results in rebuilding and increased credibility? What do they they teach in schools now a days?
