tax tax tax tax tax! donald fraud is hiking your taxes! tax increases on consumers!
yet again, media bias. if a democrat did this "tariff" crap, republicans and the media would be blowing gaskets about tax increases, protectionism, anti-capitalism, anti-free-markets, anti-freedom, killing small businesses, etc.
but donald fraud is a republican, so we'll just call them tariffs instead of taxes, imply that mexico is paying rather than american consumers and businesses, and frame it as a trade war against another country so the people feel called on to make sacrifices rather than to respond out of anger over being taxed for his economic stupidity.
when there's a tariff on mexican goods, american businesses have to pay the tariff to the u.s. government (that's what a tax is, folks), and usually they pass on some or all of that tax expense on to the america consumer.
keep calling it a tax increase.
no president in recent memory has gone around hiking taxes as often and as recklessly and as capriciously and as stupidly as donald fraud, and if the topic of taxes even comes up, the media will only talk about the tax law he signed, and even that they'll insist on calling a tax cut, even though it wasn't for 99% of the country.
