White House says Trump’s tariffs will destroy manufacturing, exacerbate inflation
Fox News
The White House said GOP support for "MAGAnomics" and former President Donald Trump's tariffs plan would raise prices for families and worsen inflation.
"Yesterday congressional Republicans met to plot a 2025 agenda that involves historic tax increases on the middle class in the form of high tariffs, then gives tax handouts to big corporations that are overcharging Americans despite inflation decreasing," Bates wrote.

Trump met with both Senate and House Republicans on Thursday during his trip to Capitol Hill. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., said afterward that the former president "briefly floated the concept of eliminating the income tax and replacing it with tariffs."
