After Trump and House Republicans’ tariffs forced Americans to pay thousands of dollars more a year per family for everyday goods, new reporting from the New York Times finds that little of that money will be returned to consumers, even as the Trump administration is refunding businesses.
It’s no wonder that a whopping 70% of voters disapprove of Trump’s handling of the economy, and that Democrats have surpassed Republicans for the party voters trust more on the economy.
REMINDER: Trump and Republican leadership-backed Jim Desmond is a rubber stamp for this calamity. Desmond voted against his own housing proposal to avoid acknowledging that Trump’s tariffs and economic agenda are crushing Southern California families.
DCCC Spokesperson Anna Elsasser:
“Trump and House Republicans took thousands of dollars out of the pockets of everyday Americans, and rather than giving it back to them, they’re giving it to corporations. This is the agenda Jim Desmond supports: the rich get richer, and hardworking families get screwed.”
