Trump says he can’t guarantee tariffs won’t raise US prices and promises swift immigration action
Donald Trump says he can’t guarantee his promised tariffs on key U.S. foreign trade partners won’t raise prices for American consumers.
Donald Trump said he can’t guarantee that his promised tariffs on key U.S. foreign trade partners won’t raise prices for American consumers and he suggested once more that some political rivals and federal officials who pursued legal cases against him should be imprisoned.
The president-elect, in a wide-ranging interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press” that aired Sunday, also touched on monetary policy, immigration, abortion and health care, and U.S. involvement in Ukraine, Israel and elsewhere.
Trump often mixed declarative statements with caveats, at one point cautioning “things do change.”
Oh, I can guarantee it will. You'd have to be as unutterably stupid as a Trump voter to believe otherwise.
In the interview, Trump defended tariffs generally, saying that tariffs are “going to make us rich.”
Well he's not lying, except by "us" he means his billionaire friends and not the American people.
My MIL laughed because I've been buying n95 masks again and tuna/rice/beans for my crawlspace. I'm hoping I just have extra food and paper goods I won't need but my gut tells me RFK is about to willingly introduce bird flu into our raw milk diets or whatever and trump is going to make everything else go through the roof.
But, hey the rich are richer.

Fuck trump.
Please don't. We don't need more of his genetics in the world.
Tariffs would make things more expensive, it would be like another inflation. Immigration will do the same. Less work force, and less people willing to work for lower wages.

At this point he could as well guarantee they won't raise prices, nobody gives any credibility to anything he says.
