No shit. If only we didn't have a whole media ecosystem dedicated to keeping that sort of information from its viewers.

Well, they might reluctantly tell them....now. The damage is already on its way and they are salivating at the earnings they anticipate - just look at market speculation...

How many of his supporters probably even STILL think that China will be paying the tariffs, I wonder? Or that China isn't somehow "cheating" because "trade deficit"? How many of his supporters know that the people setting prices on their groceries boasted about this kind of thing on earnings calls, and it had sweet fuck-all to do with "Bidenflation" (whatever the fuck that is)? How many knew that our inflation as a consequence of Covid was less than other countries?

Our "liberal media" sure didn't work very hard to separate these people from their delusions.

No they won't. They'll repeat "promises made, promises kept" and if they're forced to comment on prices they'll blame immigrants or something. Reality has no influence on what Fox News reports.

They'll blame Obama and Biden.
