The Great Tariff Loophole: How a Policy Meant to Help Working Americans Ended Up in Corporate Hands
How Trump's Illegal Trade Duties Transformed Into a Multibillion-Dollar Corporate Windfall by Winston Wendell When President Donald Trump returned to office in January 2025, he promised a new set of tariffs would fix the damage caused by his own 2017 tax cuts. He said regular folks wouldn’t notice the extra charges on imported goods, American manufacturers would see a boom, and those millions in profits that used to flow to the national elite would finally go away.

Also, I'll note that Trump's social media post (quoted and its entirety in the article in the post below) is more unhinged than his posts usually are... off-the-rails dangerously nuts.

Can you imagine the #USA ending trade w/ #China? There would be hardly anything left in Walmarts or on Amazon lol...
#Trump 's threat seems ridiculous and empty, yet reckless and dangerous. He obviously wants to overhaul the #economy by flipping it to manufacturing & export-based, but threatening to isolate the #US more and effectively destroy the economy as it stands (leaning heavily on imports & dominated by consumer spending) should be impeachable
-
Trump is threatening the FED that he will cut off #trade w/ countries that have a trade surplus over #USA (so that's a LOT, including biggest trading partners China, Canada, Mexico).
Isolating the #US more (saying that not trading is better than #tariffs) is almost villainous & has nothing to do w/ the Fed's dual mandate to ensure stable #prices ( #inflation ) & maximum #employment

It will be helpful viewing for Americans worrying about the size of the debt and salutary for Democrats and progressives when thinking about policy priorities for a post-Trump USA.
