The number one way to lower tariffs globally would be for him to roll back his IEEPA tariffs implementrd under his fictional emergency that he still hasn't quite articulated in any meaningful way.

You seem like the kind of guy that wants to preserve the water for the town long-term by poisoning the well to dissuade folks from taking a sip.

Take a sip of this


The United States is currently experiencing its lowest inflation rate in nearly five years, with the Consumer Price Index at 2.4% as of January 2026.

I know. I posted it already. Would be lower if not for Tariffman's tantrums. By a good lil bit too. Should be under 2% at this point

And don’t forget, the real story isn’t just the dramatic drop in inflation under Trump.
It’s also about a real increase in wages for the American people.

Trump and most of the republicans passed the Big Beautiful Bill, which massively cut taxes and made them permanent.
The democrats voted against tax cuts and so did Rand Paul and Thomas Massie.
Two Trump backstabbers.

Trump is letting the American people keep a lot more of their hard earned money.

He’s sticking the FED with the DEBT.

Bankruptcy.

All planned and timed.

Tariffs are working

PRESIDENT TRUMP: “Switzerland wasn’t paying tariffs, and we had a $42 billion trade deficit. So I put on a 30% tariff. Then I got an emergency call from the President, and I didn’t really like the way she talked to us. So instead of giving her a reduction, I raised it to 39%.”
