Staff Reports
The liberal media and its Democratic allies strike again, this time with another round of baseless hysteria about President Trump’s tariffs. Despite their loud cries of economic doom, recent data is proving their claims both exaggerated and desperate. These sensationalist prophets of disaster seem more interested in stirring up fear than in accepting the truth — Trump’s tariff strategy is not causing the chaos they predicted.
Let’s not forget, many on the left have been licking their chops, openly hoping for an economic downturn they could attach to Trump’s policies. It’s as if they’re rooting for Americans to suffer just so they can say “I told you so.” But the reports are out, and the sky is far from falling. Retail sales are steady, wholesale prices have taken an unexpected dip, and while the media was hoping for an economy in freefall, there’s nothing of the sort happening.
Reports of a Tariff-Driven Inflation and Recession Have Been Greatly Exaggeratedhttps://t.co/XHCBPKXQR4

Economic reality paints a far different picture than the one peddled by doom-and-gloom Democrats. Even the bigwigs at major financial institutions have had to walk back earlier recession forecasts, leaving the anti-Trump crowd clutching at straws. Yet they press on, ignoring positive economic indicators that directly contradict their narrative.
Despite their earnest efforts to undermine Trump’s trade policies, the media’s spin machine can’t change the facts. Real numbers highlight economic resilience, even as the prices of some goods see slight increases due to previously imposed tariffs. It’s fascinating to watch so-called objective journalists flail wildly at the evidence staring them down. Their anti-American sentiment is on full display when they cheer for struggles at American companies just to score cheap political points.
So, what’s the real story here? The economy isn’t in shambles — far from it. As the Democrats double down on distortion, maybe someone should send them a reality check. Or better yet, ask them: in their eagerness to take political advantage, aren’t they the ones spreading fake news?
