The war with Iran is for sure driving up prices. While you can blame Trump for getting us involved with Iran, their nuclear program was going to become an issue at some point regardless because of their nuclear program.

We had a treaty in place everyone agreed to and it was working fine. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F...

But because Obama had something to do with the treaty, Trump tore it up and then thought trying to bully and scream at Iran would accomplish something.

To tie this back into the article: People who voted for Trump accept pain to rebalance our trade. There are reasonable reasons for some of the actions he is taking, even if you don't like the strategy. While his policies have caused a lot of complication in the economy, I think he has bit off too many problems at once to burn out the good will even if his faithful.

People voted for the guy who wanted to run the country like his business. Well this is exactly how he runs his business and they're shocked he's getting an order of magnitude wealthier and the rest of the country is getting fucked. If indeed there was a trade imbalance then why wasn't anything done until recently? I mean holy shit the guy who conned Trump into tariffs wrote a book under a pseudonym just so he could quote himself. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.npr.org%2F2019%2F10%2F18... Lastly tariffs are a terrible policy as history shows. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F...
