I had to do a double take when I saw a Fox News post on Facebook claiming that the staggering $150 BILLION in tariffs that Trump has collected through Customs have been paid by “foreign countries.“
It’s hard to fathom how a full-blown “news agency“ could make such a colossal misinformation error. They leave us no other choice but to think they are either willfully blind or they are complicit in deceiving people into thinking that America is “winning” the trade war when in fact, American companies are paying the tariff taxes, all of which are being passed on to us consumers through various methods such as shrinkflation, closures, layoffs, price increases, etc.
Just today Reuters reported “American companies have decided how they’re going to respond to Trump’s tariffs: price increases.” Read it for yourself via the link below. Get informed. Double and triple check everything media is feeding you, because a lot of it is highly misleading, deceptive, and even fraudulent.
Shockingly, thousands of people responded to the Fox News article congratulating President Trump for “winning” by taking so much money from foreign countries — evidently completely unaware that the money is ultimately going to be taken from them one companies recoup all of their costs, which they are right now in the process of doing.
