    Wow. A new study just determined that Trump's tariffs have now wiped out almost EVERY DOLLAR that the average American gained from the Republican tax cut. Literally - only the super rich are benefitting at this point. Trump is a fraud. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-tariffs-wiped-most-families-080000425.html …

        Because of the Trump tariffs, the average middle income earning family in the United States has now LOST 4x the amount of his tiny tax cut. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-tariffs-wiped-most-families-080000425.html …

        In Michigan, where people are really feeling the pain from the Trump economy, and the Trump tariffs, Trump has now lost 20+ points since he was elected. It's why @BernieSanders is now up against Trump 53% - 41% in Michigan. Bernie will win there. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-tariffs-wiped-most-families-080000425.html …

        We should just call Trump’s tariffs the Trump Tax.

        I’m in middle class barely. I didn’t get anything from that tax break. It surely wiped out my income tax returns. So the so billionaires can have an extra 100 million dollars yacht

        There are new taxes in the town known as Tariffs imposed on the middle class to pay the tax cuts for the oligarchs. How very clever !!!

        How much have sanctions cost us. Seems that gas went up $1 when #Venezuela oil was sanctioned.

        Tariffs on all Chinese & Mexican goods sounds like it would make Walmart no longer a "discount" store. I'm guessing tRump and his palls don't generally shop there.

        Except it is not true. China devalued the Yuan by 10% which offset the tariffs. Keep trying to talk down the economy, it is the only chance you have.

        The jobs report today was trash. His missed the estimate. Previous months were retroactively decreased and future estimates were slashed. If Obama was in office republicans would be screaming about this for the next week

        Oh, I thought only rich Americans benefited from the tax cut. You're finally admitting there was widespread benefit...so you can attack the tariffs with the same line. Great game libs play.
