BREAKING: Donald Trump accidentally admits that his disastrous tariffs are increasing inflation because they get added to the “price of a product” and as a result a “lot of those products aren’t going to sell.”

Every MAGA fool who supported these tariffs is eating crow now…

“Are you worried about what the 145% tariffs are doing to small businesses in the U.S.? Is that why you’re bringing it down?” a reporter asked Trump.

“No… No…” he replied. “No… No… No… I haven’t brought it down. I haven’t brought— It’s still 145%, I haven’t brought it down. I said it’s a high tariff,” said Trump. “It is a high tariff but I haven’t brought it down.”

Yesterday, he announced that the 145% tariffs on Chinese goods would “come down substantially.”

“It basically means China isn’t doing any business with us essentially because it’s a very high number,” Trump continued. “So when you add that to the price of a product it’s you know… A lot of those products aren’t going to sell.”

“But China’s not doing any business. They were doing uh, $1.11 trillion, think of that,” he added.

Trump has repeatedly falsely claimed that tariffs do not affect inflation and that foreign countries end up paying them. The truth, of course, is that the increased costs are passed on to American consumers.

This man has such disdain for the intelligence of his supporters that he thinks he can state in one breath that he’s not worried about the tariff effects on small businesses — which are suffering terribly right now to due to skyrocketing margins — and then turn around and admit that tariffs do in fact increase prices and lower consumption.

This entire debacle will go down in history as one of the most idiotic economic wounds ever inflicted on the American people. Donald Trump isn’t steering us into a new “Golden Age,” he’s driving us right off a cliff.
