President Trump’s temporary tariff pause offers a critical window to double down on policies that could supercharge the U.S. economy. Here’s what needs to happen next:
Extending the is essential. Letting these cuts expire would slam families and businesses with $4.5 trillion in new taxes over a decade. Permanent cuts would lock in wage growth and job creation, fueling long-term prosperity.
Tariffs alone risk price hikes, but coupling them with for lower earners and could ignite growth. Heritage Foundation economists argue replacing income taxes with targeted tariffs on foreign goods would unleash $728 billion in economic expansion and 2.8 million jobs. The key? Slash federal waste through Trump’s new aiming to cut $1 trillion annually.
Bureaucratic hurdles are strangling small businesses. Streamlining permits and axing burdensome regulations—especially for energy and manufacturing—would let Main Street thrive. As economist Richard Werner warns, freeing local banks from DC’s grip is critical to reviving rural economies.
Trump’s and higher rates for trade abusers like China must accelerate the return of steel, chip, and auto manufacturing. While globalists fret, this strategy already boosted U.S. factory jobs by 500,000 in Trump’s first term.
Shadowy forces in agencies like the FBI and CIA have sabotaged America First policies. Draining the swamp requires purging disloyal bureaucrats and reasserting presidential control over rogue institutions.
Trump’s blueprint—tax freedom, smart tariffs, deregulation, and nationalist trade—is the rocket fuel America needs. Opponents howl, but the facts don’t lie: median incomes rose $6,000 under his first-term policies, and doing it bigger now could cement U.S. dominance for generations.
