Lots of MAGA voters opposed to retailers displaying tariff costs

A new Economist/YouGov survey finds that more Trump 2024 voters said yes on “Should businesses display how much of a purchase price goes toward paying tariffs?” than no, but not by much: 40 percent said “Yes,” 37 percent said “No,” and the remaining 23 percent said they don’t know, showing that plenty of Trump fans are very much on board with deeming retailers being honest with consumers about how much this stupid bullshit is costing them “a hostile political act” as psychotic Nazi White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt did last week when asked about Amazon’s aborted plan to display by how much an item’s price has been raised by tariffs.

Funny side note about that: Amazon had publicly denied that Trump had anything to do with them backing down on the policy – which was only meant to apply to a commercial shipping service they run called Amazon Haul, not the entire site – and then fatass later told reporters that he had in fact angrily called Jeff Bezos and demanded that the megacorporation cease and desist. Pretty fucking incredible either way, that it was a “hostile political act” for a company to do that.

Anyway, other groups of respondents were predictably far more uniform in whether retailers should lay out the costs of tariffed products: 61 percent of both overall respondents and indie voters said yes to 17 and 14 percent no, respectively while among Harris 2024 voters it was 82 yes to 6 no.

In other ridiculous findings from the poll, on the question of “Agreement with Trump Statements about the Economy – This is Biden’s stock market, not Trump’s” 41 percent of Trump voters agreed to 36 percent disagree, among indie voters that was 10 percent yes to 80 percent no. On “The businessmen who criticize tariffs are bad at business” it was also 41 percent of Trump voters agreeing while 34 percent disagreed, while among indies that was 16 to 53 percent agree/disagree.
