The TRUTH about tariffs (what the MSM is not telling you)

Has the MSM succeeded in getting you all stirred up in a tizzy about tariffs? Did they convince you everything you buy at the store will soon cost 100% more because, say it with me: “the tariff is just a tax on the consumer”? I know this might surprise you, but it turns out all of that is one huge lie. I like to make things really simple to understand and I just found a video that PERFECTLY lays this out. It’s short, take a look here and in less than 2 minutes I think you’ll fully understand just how badly the MSM lied to you yet again: The TRUTH about tariffs (what the MSM is not telling you) pic.twitter.com/6kSb1UMaL7 — Noah Christopher (@DailyNoahNews) April 16, 2025 FULL TRANSCRIPT: Chinese producers are all over social media right now, and they’re exposing just who is targeted by Trump’s tariffs. And it’s not the American consumers. And it’s not the Chinese producers. It’s actually our international corporations who have sold out American prosperity for their own profits. Let me illustrate. Let’s use this example of Nike. Now these are fictitious numbers, just for example. But let’s say that Nike buys shoes from this company that manufactures Nike shoes for ten dollars—a Nike shoe. Which isn’t very far off. Nike turns around and sells that shoe at retail for a hundred dollars. Here’s the interesting part about tariffs. You’re not paying tariffs on the retail price. This is not a tax in the classic sense— The way the economists who are bought and paid for are trying to conflate it as. It is a tax On the import. This means with a twenty-five percent tariff, Nike is going to have to pay two dollars and fifty cents to the U.S. government every time it imports a Nike shoe at ten dollars. So this $2.50 gets remitted to the American government— To American citizens. Now Nike’s cost: ten dollars for the shoe, $2.50 for the import tax. This means they’re netting $87 per shoe. Now that’s net, not profit. There are going to be other costs that are going to have to come from that. But you can see that the increase in cost is $2.50. So let’s say that Nike passes the entire cost onto the consumer— Even a little more just because of the fear of tariffs. A hundred and three dollars a shoe now. That is the impact of a twenty-five percent tariff. So what the Chinese producers on TikTok are saying— Instead of the American consumer buying it for $103, Or let’s just say that the company Nike eats all $2.50 of the tariff and still sells it for $100— You’re way better off over here paying directly to China, including the tariff: $12.50 a shoe plus shipping. So as you can see, the tariffs are not meant to hurt consumers. They’re not meant to hurt China. They don’t really affect China at all. They are meant to protect American industry. They are meant to protect Americans from their corporations, Who will sell them out for a profit. So if you look hard, you’ll notice that the people who are screaming about how bad tariffs are for consumers— It’s these companies right here. It’s Wall Street. It’s all the investors in these companies, Because they don’t want American citizens to realize These companies have sold them out, And that they’re not doing Americans any favors. Now does it make sense? Let’s connect the final dots and sum this up…. Big Business controls the MSM. Big Business has been scamming the American People for decades, offshoring jobs, padding their pockets, and charging you through the nose with increasing prices every single year. Then when their scam is being exposed by Trump’s tariffs, they send their minions in the MSM out to put out this massive spin. Are you starting to wake up and see through all the lies? Look, I’m all for capitalism and making money in business, but I’m not for unfair trade practices and screwing over Americans to get those profits. Do it fairly. Do it the right way. Do it America First! Then go ahead and make all the money you want. MORE HERE: Here’s EXACTLY What Life Will Be Like With Trump Tariffs (Spoiler alert: it’s REALLY good!)

I saw some guy panicking on here, saying, "Okay, tariffs move us closer to cancellation—potential cancellation of an income tax—and it would be one of the most robust growth strategies to the United States economy that anybody can imagine." Now, if you're worried about tariffs, please understand that 44 percent of the tariffs are actually absorbed by the exporter. And if you're worried about runaway prices, okay, let me show you. I'll just show you. Now I even went to a left-leaning source—CNBC—so that nobody can call me biased. Trump's proposed tariff increase would boost inflation by nearly one percent, Goldman Sachs estimates. This calculation includes a 10 percent tariff on China and a 25 percent tariff on Canada and Mexico, resulting in roughly a one percent increase in inflation. So think about this, okay? Because advancing a pro-tariff policy moves us closer and closer to being able to cancel income taxes. Visualize this for your life: inflation goes up one percent. A three-dollar item now costs three dollars and three cents. But because we've advanced tariffs, the net exporters taking advantage of us in trade deals are absorbing a lot of the tax. That's why you generally only see a one percent increase—even with 10 percent on China and 25 percent on both Mexico and Canada. If we can raise our tariffs—which we're going to do because we're done being taken advantage of—this change is happening whether or not anybody wants it. With a raise in tariffs and a subsequent decrease in government spending of two trillion dollars based on current GDP and economic levels, that would require 0 percent income taxes. So this is what your life could look like once the plan is done: A robust economy with runaway employment, a three-dollar item costing you three dollars and three cents, and you're not subject to income taxes any longer. Is your life better or worse? I know a lot of people hate Trump, but this is the trajectory we are on—and he reaffirmed it again today. Have a great day, everybody. Here is a portion of that CNBC report: The latest tariff proposal from President-elect Donald Trump would likely put upward pressure on inflation in the United States, according to Goldman Sachs. On Monday, Trump said on social media site Truth Social that he would impose an additional 10% tariff on goods from China and a 25% duty for Canada and Mexico. Goldman’s chief economist, Jan Hatzius, said in a note that the proposed levies would result in a notable increase for consumer prices in the U.S.. “Using our rule of thumb that every 1 [percentage point] increase in the effective tariff rate would raise core PCE prices by 0.1%, we estimate that the proposed tariff increases would boost core PCE prices by 0.9% if implemented,” Hatzius said. “PCE” refers to the personal consumption expenditures price index, which is the preferred inflation reading of the Federal Reserve. A tariff-linked increase in core PCE could scramble the calculations around Fed rate cuts. The October PCE reading is due out Wednesday, and it’s expected to show a year-over-year increase of 2.8% for the core, according to economists surveyed by Dow Jones. In other words, inflation is still above the Fed’s target of 2%, and the tariffs could widen that gap. Traders have been dialing back their expectations for Fed rate cuts in 2025, though it is unclear how much of that is due to election results versus a resilient U.S. economy. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has said the central bank will consider the impact of tariffs and other fiscal policy changes on the direction of inflation once the details become clear.
