“Anti-tariff economists and financial commentators keep making ridiculous claims.”

Armstrong/Delta7 predictions:

He failed to predict his three bankrupsies.

He failed to predict his losing $700 million of his clients’funds.

He failed to predict he would spend eleven years in the federal pen.

In 2014 he predicted gold would soar to $5,000 in 2015.

In 2014 he predicted that there would be a world financial collapse would occur in 2015.

July 2024 he predicted US cIvil unrest/WAR to happen just before the 2024 elections.

November 2024 he predicted a US civil war would happen the week of Trump’s inauguration with the US breaking up into four new countries in 2026.

December 2024 he said via Socrates that the 2024 elections would be the last in the US.

January 2025 he predicted US civil unrest on May 7

Thanks for the May 7 civil unrest tip.

I will shave and go to the grocery store early that day.

How can tariffs add to the price for the consumers, when the tariff is paid by the seller directly to the Federal Government? The buyer here is buying it for the price agreed upon, if the seller raised the price to cover the tariff the tariff amount goes up accordingly for the seller.

President Donald Trump is urging the Fed to cut interest rates to offset the inflation that will be caused by tariffs.

Tariffs don't cause inflation.
