Hey friend,
Trump promised prices would drop on “Day 1.”
Now, 178 days in, prices aren’t dropping—your buying power is.
His “Tariff Tax” is here, and every trip to the store or gas pump proves it.
This wasn’t hard to predict. Economists and common sense warned it would happen. Just last week, inflation spiked again as Trump’s tariffs on Europe and beyond kicked in. The Consumer Price Index jumped to 2.7%.
Experts agree: Trump’s trade chaos is starving your paycheck while he passes the blame.

Let’s be honest: tariffs are a tax on Americans. When the government taxes imports, companies raise prices, and working families eat the cost. Meanwhile, Trump plays populist theater while saddling us with the real-world fallout.
I fought these tariffs every step of the way. But now that they’re law? The only move is to keep pushing for relief, for accountability, and for the truth. [[link removed]]
If you're done paying the price for Trump’s economic fiction, chip in:

Onward,
Eric
