Exclusive: 90% of Democrats, 57% of Republicans are worried about tariffs, with similar concerns about recession

Summary

A new Harris Poll shows growing concern among Americans about Trump’s tariff policies, with 72% now worried compared to 61% in January.

Despite Trump’s claim that tariffs are “pouring money” into the country, 66% believe the U.S. economy will take years to recover from these measures.

The poll reveals a partisan divide: 90% of Democrats and 57% of Republicans express concern about tariffs.

Trump has already imposed additional tariffs on Chinese imports and all steel and aluminum, while threatening “reciprocal” tariffs on global imports.

      Really it’s just going into the oligarchs pockets in the form of tax cuts the government cannot afford.
