Billionaire Ken Langone just shocked everyone by admitting he was wrong about President Trump. The Home Depot co-founder completely flipped his stance on Trump’s tariffs after seeing how well they’re working. Langone once backed Nikki Haley and criticized Trump’s trade war, but now he’s all in.
Langone told CNBC he now sees the “merit” in Trump’s economic policies. He said the tariffs are triggering massive growth. Langone believes America can’t be held down because we’re the greatest country on earth. This 90-year-old business legend says the best is yet to come for America under Trump’s leadership.
The numbers prove Langone right. Since Trump took office in January, inflation has been low at just 1.8%. Import prices have actually fallen by 0.8% annually. Tariffs haven’t hurt the economy like the media claimed. They’ve made America stronger and more competitive.
Langone admitted on “Squawk Box” that he misjudged Trump. He thought tariffs would cause inflation and hurt businesses. But company earnings reports show businesses are thriving despite the tariffs. The stock market keeps hitting record highs, proving the doubters wrong.
This billionaire’s change of heart shows real patriotism. Langone put country over politics by admitting his mistake. He saw how Trump’s policies put American workers first. That’s the conservative way – facts over feelings, results over rhetoric.
Trump’s tariff strategy is protecting American jobs from unfair foreign competition. Countries like Vietnam thought they could steal our business, but Trump’s tough trade deals stopped them. Now companies are bringing manufacturing back to America where it belongs.
Langone’s support matters because he’s a business expert. When a billionaire who built Home Depot praises Trump’s economy, liberals should listen. But they won’t – they’d rather attack success than admit Trump was right.
This proves conservatives fight for all Americans, not just the elite. Trump’s policies help workers, businesses, and our country’s future. With leaders like Trump, America’s best days are ahead. Langone knows it, and real patriots do too.
