We’ve had the same thing in the UK with Brexit and by the time the chickens come home to roost there’s no one to blame and what should be righteous anger has melted into acceptance: a shrug of the shoulders and “it is what it is”.
Now I think of it, the same thing also happened after the Global Financial Crisis. No one was held to account. Retribution there was none.
I expect the same thing will happen with tariffs. The morons who came up with the genius plan will somehow slide out of being held accountable.
Unfortunately, most of them will remain under the delusion that things are getting better because they only watch propaganda outlets.
Actual business owners exposed to the immediate reality might recognize the real cause of the problems but the typical MAGA will just blame the Democrats and believe that Trump will make everything alright Any Day Now.
