@pbsnews: Consumer confidence hits near-record low amid worries over Trump trade policy Treasury Secretary Bessent seemed to acknowledge Sunday that President Trump’s tariffs may lead to some prices going up, but downplayed fears that it would fuel inflation. This past week, a closely watched measure of consumer sentiment slid to a near-record low, largely on concerns about trade policy. Personal finance expert Erin Lowry joins Ali Rogin to discuss. #pbsnews #newshour #pbsnewshour #news #economy #recessionfears #scottbessent #trumpadministration #consumerconfidence #economicnews
What happened to China paying the tariffs? Oh wait…that’s not how tariffs work, is it?

Walmart will get a rude awakening when people stop buying there and I’m sure a lot will boycott them just like they did Target gafo

I came to observe 👑 :
It’s going to pass on to consumers Trump knows that , he just don’t want it being said out loud . Trump raised the tariffs extremely outrageous then brought back down to where Biden had it .

What he meant is “this is the first month inflation has gone UP in years”. Wild that they can just lie that blatantly.

Trump does this to weaken us as a country while he builds up other countries that pay him.

The tariff, as a way to hurt China totally fails. Even facing 145% US tariff, April China export up 8% overall, industrial production up 6.1%. US already suffered negative GDP, likely recession or worse as result of Trump tariff.
