Treasury posts unexpected surplus in June as tariff receipts surge

The first surplus in 20 years. No doubt our resident brigade of poison dwarves will be along to tell us how this is a bad thing. $26 billion surplus - congratulations to those who put their trust in Trump to rebalance the economy.

You mean - the drop in inflation rate now heading to 1.66% annualized? 

 

Anyway, I knew someone would moan about this. Some people are not happy until they are unhappy.

By the way - no serious economist has ever predicted that the full tariffs would be paid by US consumers. Manufacturers and importers are taking a haircut. 

 

Democrats are enraged that inflation is dropping and the idea of a budget surplus? Dear me, landslide territory for Trump at the midterms

Funny because so far the majority of the newly tariffed items are actually cheaper than before the new Tariffs

Please show us the products that have increased in price because of tariffs.

 

We do understand that you hate the United States and will spew any lie or propaganda to hurt us.
