This is how Trump intends to spin a Supreme Court loss when it inevitably comes.

He will swear up and down that the checks didn't come from American importers and taxpayers.

Is there any evidence that tariffs have actually generated any revenue whatsoever?

And then is there any evidence that says revenue (if it even exists) wasn't completely offset by rising prices and general loss of our otherwise reliable trade partners?

they cared, alright. conservatives blamed the "socialist" stimmies for the sky-high inflation.

but of course if Trump does it, it's not socialism and it won't raise inflation.

For the country? Of course not.

The tariffs are actually generating quite a bit of revenue. But they have also resulted in higher costs on a lot of consumer goods and damaged our trade relations.

When a Democrat does it, its communism or socialism or something and his spending caused inflation to soar.

When Republicans do it, they are thinking of the working class.

People hold Democrats to a higher standard, and always treat Republicans with excuses.

Thanks. You can see the contradictions right there. The Treasury Secretary and Trump himself have said the tariffs will pay down the national debt. But even ignoring the fact that after Republicans extended the Trump tax cuts the chances of actually getting to a surplus are nonexistent, the tariffs can't be used to pay down anything if they're going to stimulus payments. If you assume the top 10% of earners wouldn't get these then paying $2,000 each to 90% of US citizens would cost somewhere around $550 billion while the figures I've seen for how much tariffs have brought in so far is less than $200 billion.
