Ep. 162 Trump’s Tariffs Cook China, Brand Loyalists Weep.

Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs hit yesterday, April 3, 2025—34% on China, 20% on the EU. People say tariffs are taxes? What kind of tax out there is optional—something I can just opt out of? If tariffs are that kind of “tax,” then I’m all for more of them. If my Champagne or Coca-Cola gets too expensive, I’ll just grab a generic or new american version instead. Change your spending habits or don’t, your call. Is this our generational call, like the ‘40s war boom or the ‘70s stagflation slog? Maybe it’s time to ditch the imported junk and buy American-made—shift to U.S. generics, dodge the tariff tax, and keep cash in your pocket. Politicians have yapped about reciprocal tariffs since the ‘90s, but now they’re anti-Trump’s play—why? Spoiler: they hate him more than they love America. We’ve got the breakdown: biggest tariff hits, everyday goods getting pricier, and smart swaps to sidestep the mess. Plus, the soup of labor, wages, and wartime prep—imagine soldiers naked with no phones if China cuts us off. Business owners might eat less profit, you might swap champagne for sparkling wine—toughen up, it’s fine. And the real clowns? Voting blocs—like Kamala’s cheerleaders—lacking common sense, divided by race, drowning in hypocrisy. Tune in for the tariff truth and how to call out the anti-Trump econ whiners—because when prices spike, the game gets real.
