How will Trump lower food prices while putting tarriffs on foreign trading partners?

[Anonymous]

How will he do that?

[lightbulb27]

Yea not sure about that... everything I see... says prices will rise and I think that is the plan. he's really jacking the whole system, which is fine by me... he's fixing what I wanted fixed so won't complain about prices.

Only real way is to bring down the underlying price of energy and maybe he achieves that some. But jacking with the big ag food systems, that raise prices. Only way to lower price then is more production or imports, but stuff getting tariffed? So, I see price going up.

I really think lower food price was the lie and the truth is he's trying to fix the finances. he's a finance guy, not a truth teller with a crystal ball.

He won't. It's just something he said for votes like whej he lied about ending the Ukraine war on day 1. He has no ability or plan to do either. Most of his actions are simply personal revenge as he is incapable of caring about anyone other than himself. What a "leader"!

He is enabling American energy production which will bring down the cost of gas and diesel fuel. This will bring down the cost of everything that needs petroleum to produce or transport. He is trying to get tax bill passed with a reduction in the corporate tax rate. This will reduce the costs of doing business which will also cause lower prices. He is cutting the federal budget which will prevent having to print more money which causes inflation.

After all those measures have taken place will the cost of manufacturing definitely be cheaper than America compared to where it was originally imported from? Most likely not.

He would have to subsidize by a huge amount, which in turn will lead to huge debt.

Only way to lower energy is by the government sieving all natural resources like a communist revolution. Thats what every country with less then a dollar per gallon of gas has done.

We have enough oil to flood the globe but we pump out just enough to make profit.

@NaultD We had energy independence and were a net exporter of oil when Trump was in office the first time. We had the lowest gas prices in decades and 1.4% inflation. Oil companies made enough money as well.

The world was a different place then. Nothing to do with Trump

[exitseven]

It's the same world with a different leader/

[Asker]

Haha no it certainly isn't a different world now

[DryGermanGuy]

He won't. He already backed off from his election promises, that only the gullible believed.

Food prices and trading partners are not codependent. We grow most food here.

[msc545]

Trump doesn't care about food prices. He has too much food for himself as it is.

America has the lowest tariffs in the world. Stop crying like a bitch.

[Asker]

You are the one crying from my post lol

[Opinion Owner]

You are the cry baby who asked the question.

[BlckGrl]

Crickets...

You eat steel?

[Asker]

Nope, but I eat ' exotic' food. Do you eat steel or exotic food?

[seeyounexttuesday]

So now you’re being treated fairly. That country that exports “exotic” food puts tariffs on US goods.

[In_Trance]

He won't
