Trump’s own aides keep him in state of delusion about tariff fiasco
Summary
Trump’s advisers are reportedly misleading him about support for his tariff policies, claiming working-class voters back them.
However, polling shows most non-college-educated Americans—especially nonwhite voters—believe tariffs hurt the economy and increase inflation.
A Marquette Law poll found only non-college white men narrowly support tariffs. A CNN poll showed 59% of non-college voters disapprove of Trump's handling of tariffs.
Critics argue Trump’s team is feeding him a distorted view, ignoring backlash and economic risks, which could give Democrats an opening to reclaim working-class support amid rising costs.
"...give Democrats an opening..." Yeaaaahh, they surely won't squander this opportunity.
Fox working overtime trying to manufacture consent as well...
...manly tarrifs... Cure masculine crisis... Lmfao... Jesus
The tariffs are genderless. Assigning gender affirming adjectives seems to run counter to their rhetoric.
Imagine being so insecure and so stupid that you honestly believe this.
I remember a story about Men thinking wheels on luggage made them weak until someone sponsored pilots to have some. Toxic masculinity is truly a blessing of nurgle. It rot and festers.
Whaaaaaat? Being surrounded loyalist yesmen does not produce an environment for truthful feedback? I, for one, am shocked. Shocked I tell you!
I'm surprised no one has tried the "You hate DEI because you claim they lack merit, well I hate Trumps YES hires because their only merit is sucking up to Trump. No expertise required..."
You don't get good and decent people when you are a well known narcissists. At best you get yes men and yes blonde women. At worst you get someone just like you who plays you like a fiddle. This is what he has. A mix of useless sycophants and manipulative opportunist.
In the real world, all the tariff chaos gives Democrats an opening to try to crack his vaunted coalition.
In the real world, The New Republic, the trump voting bloc is a cult. It is not possible to "crack his vaunted coalition", becuase it is one single unit of fear-based lifelong republiQans and hypnotized rightwing media victims that no amount of logic or reasoning can penetrate.
To repeat: it is a cult, media is a desperate vortex of lies and you're not really helping like you mean to.
But you're sweet to offer false hope.
In 90 days—or, who knows, nine—Trump could flip-flop yet again.
Well exactly. The demented rapist is a fucking menace to reason, much less a functioning government.
He didn’t hire people who would contradict him.
basically like putin, his "circles" are constantly telling him what he want to hear and not from anyone with actual advice,
I truly wonder if his caregivers are telling him this.

Well, yeah...
That's how the cowardly sycophants keep their respective jobs under Mafia Don Mangolini.
Whadya expect?
🙄 🙄
Would someone please have the guts to repeatedly tell him the truth and destroy the fantasy world he lives in. Everyone around him that keeps quiet is absolutely part of the problem.
Pffft.
Do you think that anyone talking to him would change his mind about anything?
Nope but I can hope….
