Trump voters say president’s tariffs are major red flag for them: new poll (www.independent.co.uk)

A recent poll reveals that many of Donald Trump's voters have reservations about his tariff policies, especially those targeting China.

Only half of Trump voters surveyed believe that his tariffs on China will ultimately benefit US companies.

Roughly one in four Trump voters expressed concerns that the tariffs are damaging the US's ability to negotiate trade agreements with other nations.

Trump's supporters are nearly evenly split on whether he should require Congressional approval to impose tariffs or if he should possess the sole authority.

While 46 per cent of Trump voters support tariffs on China even if they lead to higher domestic prices, a quarter of them also think these tariffs are detrimental to US companies.

Oh look, he’s doing exactly what he said he’d do. He advertised his intentions but stupid people didn’t pay attention. My relationship with my mother ended because she voted for him again. Whoops, you voted to hurt yourself.

I still can't believe the Dems lost to the dumbest freaking idiots alive. What a clown show.

Leading up to the election, they really could not make a single politically wise decision to save their lives. They doubled down on out of touch rich people as their base, and are only tripling down now. Despite left wing politicians doing well while centrists languished, they think that a more feudal future where the poors have died or can't vote will save them. They're doing everything they can to prevent left wing opposition from existing so people can only choose politicians who openly don't represent them.
