Toxic Tariffs? More Like...Lucky Charms?
Okay so I just read this article about some White House advisor Stephen Miran saying that Trump's tariffs causing prices to go up is like a meteor hitting Earth. A METEOR! Are you serious?! I mean I know I've had my 'Oops!... I Did It Again' moments but this feels like a whole other level of... dramatic honey! You know I love drama but come on! Is this guy for real?
Stronger Than Yesterday...Except My Wallet?
He apparently said 'Rare events happen. We get pandemics or or meteors or whatever.' 'Whatever'?! Sir 'whatever' is what I say when I can't decide what flavor Frappuccino to get not when we're talking about the economy! I’m stronger than yesterday but my wallet is getting weaker everyday.
Gimme More...Money? 'Cause These Prices Are Up!
The article says Trump didn’t announce his “reciprocal” tariff agenda until April. Oh honey that's like saying I didn’t know I was famous until I saw my face on a magazine cover. Please! And they keep pushing back the deadlines. It's like when I keep saying I’m going to start that new dance routine...eventually! I need to gimme more money because these prices are so high!
Not a Girl Not Yet a...Economist?
So this Miran guy is saying prices haven't gone up yet. But everyone else is like 'Hold up it's coming!' It’s like when I dye my hair – the change might not be immediate but trust me it’s gonna be blonde eventually! Maybe I should become an economist. 'Not a girl not yet an economist!'
Oops!...He Paraphrased Again!
And then he says when asked if tariffs will eventually raise prices '...eventually you know a meteor is going to strike or whatever.' He keeps bringing up the meteor! Is he secretly an alien trying to warn us? Or maybe he just really likes Armageddon. Either way I'm confused and that's saying something.
Crazy...For Lower Prices!
The White House has a report and everything. It’s supposed to show prices are down. But honestly all I see are higher prices everywhere I go! Maybe I'm just 'Crazy,' but I'm pretty sure I’m paying more for everything! This whole situation is just… toxic! I need to go dance it out.
