What did the TRUMP-tariffs actually achieve?
A decrease so small it's ridiculous!

This text is shown to cor­rect one of the lies Mr. Trump will
- for sure - tell Feb. 24, 2026 in his "Sta­te-of-the-Uni­on" Speech

The US Supre­me Court recent­ly ruled most of Trump's so-cal­led tariffs unlawful. This is a seve­re blow to his eco­no­mic poli­ci­es and his self-image. But what did the tariffs actual­ly achie­ve? The US pre­si­dent justi­fi­ed the mea­su­res at the time as a step towards tack­ling the lar­ge US trade defi­cit. This occurs when a coun­try imports more goods and ser­vices than it exports. But many eco­no­mists had war­ned before­hand: Tariffs are not a sui­ta­ble instru­ment for redu­cing the lar­ge import sur­plus. Instead, they would dri­ve up con­su­mer pri­ces for many pro­ducts. They were right.

The con­su­mers had to pay the tariffs - which rai­sed the pri­ces of ever­y­day goods like eggs, milk, pro­du­ce, fuel. The "BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL" sho­ves all that addi­tio­nal money into the pockets of Trumps Bil­lion­aire donors & asso­cia­tes .... it will never redu­ce the bur­den on ordi­na­ry people.
Trumps Address is best enjoy­ed using this gad­gets red but­ton ....
