Trump promised the Americans a better life, more jobs, lower cost of living, and to make America great again. So far none has come true but the reverse. The tariff war is a sharp knife that is slicing the throats of the Americans, particularly on the homeless, jobless and paycheck to paycheck Americans. The latter forms more than 50% of the American population...and the dead beat farmers, the Trump supporters.
How bad is the tariff war hurting these Americans? What is life like for paycheck to paycheck Americans? For one group, they use their paycheck to pay and live for the current month. Every month end they would finish off every dollar from their last paycheck and have to wait for the arrival of the next paycheck to start buying and living again. This is not that bad if the routine is not changed.
The next group use their paycheck to pay off all the debt and credit bills they have chalked in the last month, ie clear debt and bills. The next month's living expenses would be on credit all over again. They never have the privilege of touching a dollar from their paycheck.
The worse group would be those that could not pay off all their debt of last month with their paychecks and need to borrow some more to pay their debt, and to charge to credit for everything they need for the coming month to add to their debt.
How would the tariff hurt these paycheck to paycheck Americans. A 10% rise in consumer goods would mean money not enough when it is already tight. It means buying lesser things, eating less and to coup with having less. What if the cost of everything goes up by 20% or 30%? Put yourself in their position, the wives trying to budget their marketing and shopping, the children with lesser or no pocket money....
For the jobless and homeless, it would be living hell with greater intensity. The paycheck to paycheck Americans would no longer have anything spare to share with them. The paycheck to paycheck Americans could be kind and share with those that were struggling with whatever they could spare, but no more.
For the 25% of Americans that were not living from paycheck to paycheck may end up living from paycheck to paycheck when their little extra or savings are eaten up by higher cost of everything.
Trump has effectively made the Americans poorer with all these tariffs by making everything cost more. And that is if the routine remains unchanged, if the goods and supplies are still coming in. What if the daily necessities, the cheap consumer goods, appliances, clothing, shoes, etc are not coming in or coming in in drips and draps?
Trump is making the Americans poorer and poorer, and their lives more miserable and there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Things can only get worse as long as Trump continues with his silly and stupid tariff war against the whole world.
Say thank you very much to Trump for turning their lives to living hell and poverty.
By the way, Trump's diehard supporters, the farmers, are crying in desperation. September is harvesting month. Not a single order from China. All their produces would have to rot away. And they still have to pay their loans from the banks. And some need more loans to buy new machine or parts for repairs. The machine and parts are costing more because of the tariffs. And many diehards still swearing that they will vote for Trump again while demanding for billions for bailout that is not coming.
Trump, the Chosen One, is delivering karma to the rednecks and farmers for their cocky and arrogant stand against bailouts for the workers, and for supporting Trump's tariff war against China. Ya, they think they would be safe under Trump, tariffs would not hurt them. These hillbillies' brains are as big as Trump's pea brain.
MAGA is no more 'Make America Great Again'. MAGA now means 'Make America Grief Again'.
ReplyDeleteNow, something very sinister is happening in the USA with the shooting of Charlie Kirk. Few people really take note of what has come out of the woodwork. Republicans are warning USA citizens to mourn 'properly' or face consequences. How do they define what is mourning properly and not properly? Not crying loudly must obviously be fake mourning. Crying loudly must obviously be adopted to show real mourning. So, those that hate Charlie Kirk must therefore also be forced to cry out loudly or be singled out for punishment for not mourning properly, right?
When North Koreans mourned the death of its leader, the USA made fun of the mourning by saying that the people of North Korea were forced to show fake mourning by crying out loud. How do they know that? Now it appears that the USA is trying to force its citizens to follow North Korea and cry loudly in order to show real mourning as opposed to not crying out loud. Is that the new ideology copied from North Korea? Looks like another dictatorship rising and aping another, becoming the pot calling the kettle black. Kim Jong Un would be laughing his head off. Troop movements inside the USA are coming into focus and this could mean a dictatorship is brewing. Karma is working.
Before we admire the FBI for taking credit over the arrest of Kirk's shooter, it was actually a shame for the FBI for not actually able to arrest Robinson. He was turned in by his family on a platter. What kind of a dysfunctional family it must be, turning their own kind in to face death. And the whole family was supposed to support Trum.
Some people have already been arrested for not mourning properly, LOL. Sounds like North Korea in their head.
DeleteTrump just make the American Dream better. Just feeling good is good enough. Never mind all the charade and fakery.
