Conservative voice Meghan McCain , daughter of Republican leader late John McCain, expressed her disapproval of Trump's tariffs that she claimed pushed Americans to struggle. She said she's not a financial expert but neither are those who are going to television channel and claiming that they don't care for the financial pain for while. "Most of you are married to finance bros, come from rich families or have huge media contracts. You have a cushion if s**t goes south".
"One of my best friends buys her groceries for her family based on what coupons each store has. I assure you a possible recession or huge rise in prices everywhere will be a different experience for her family than you."
Calling herself the "emperorts new clothes", she said she had to tell the truth that it is Left thing to ask Americans to suffer. "I don’t want people who have already suffered so much to suffer anymore but hey that’s just me. America is the land of plenty and this is normally a thing the left does, asking Americans to suffer," she said.
Social media users told her that not many Americans have money in stocks and hence the Wall Street bloodbath does not affect the general Americans. McCain retorted that union pensions rely on the stock market and a majority of Americans rely on publicly traded companies. "61% of US adults own stocks, including 51% of those earning between $30K and $75K, and a quarter of those earning less than $30K. Not to mention 401ks. This impacts everyone," Meghan McCain said.
Many dug out her past posts and reminded her that this was what she voted for.
The trade war that Donald Trump unleashed on Liberation Day (April 2) escalated as Trump threatened China with a new 50 per cent tariff as China is not budging on the tariff war. China announced a 34 per cent tariff to counter US's 34 per cent tariff, contributing to the global economic meltdown. Adding more to it, Trump Monday announced that he's ready to impose more tariffs on China.

I’m not pretending to be a financial expert - but there are so many hypocritical talking heads on tv saying they don’t care about losing money or being in financial pain for a while. Most of you are married to finance bros, come from rich families or have huge media contracts.…
