One thing is very clear

if Trump wins and if he brings in his tariffs as he's promising

for inflation - it's game over. It will roar away like throwing a bucket of petrol on a fire in a wind

his tariffs on imports are added to the import price of goods - the higher price heads on down the line from importer to distributor to wholesaler to retailer - bumped up all along the way -

the price tag at the end - which Americans pay the actual bill - will be astonishingly higher

boom - inflation plus plus plus.

And his 'magic' plan - which would bring some manufacturing back to the US - because they could then compete with the higher prices -

will mean that the US made replacement goods - ARE AT HIGER PRICES -

again - BOOM - the Americans who pay at the cash register - STILL get stiffed for a bigger bill

how America handles the runaway inflation - god knows.

How it affects the rest of us - Oz and others - god knows

But, one thing is sure ----------- it's probably NOT going to be pretty -not at all.

“if Trump wins”
