"People who work for a living, should live better than those who do not"

"It's unfair to ask American workers to compete with workers in other countries who are paid a tenth what Americans make".
---------------------------------------------------

Those are exactly they types of messaging that the anti-MAGA's need to
put out. Hell, it doesn't have to be a Dem putting out that message,
an Independents could garner support with that.

Another easy bit of messaging is to show that tariffs are just a tax on
the American Consumer: " Americans, are the Trump-Tariff-Taxes making
your grocery bills go down ? Trump promised he would lower your grocery prices on Day-1, are you seeing that ?? "

I had been keeping track of the list prices on a certain model of truck.
In November of 2024, found it consistently offered for about $37K. Now the identical model is listed at just below $50K. That is a 35% price hike, for an identical vehicle, in less than a year. Screw that, I'll drive the wheels off of my perfectly functioning but aging truck, and then blow off this American manufacturer and look for a decent deal on a used vehicle, or a new truck from a different maker.

And the messaging to farmers and other rural agricultural businesses
would be "like shooting fish in the barrel" easy. Message that
in 2024, $12Billion in American soybeans were sold to China. Ask those
farmers how much is being sold to China today ?

Message that nitwit Lutnick says the tariff deals are about opening up
other Countries markets to Americans, and ask how exactly is China
buying $Billions of American food crops in 2024, and effectively heading
to buying $0 Billions of American food crops in 2025, how is that opening up markets ??

There are a whole lot of examples of Trump screwing over Americans while denying any harmful effects. By 2026, all but the deepest in the cult members should be aware of the total bullshite coming out of Trump's
piehole.
