President Trump foolishly thinks he has the ability to set the tariffs on imports from 200 countries. FDR thought he could set the price of gold each morning in 1933. Both flunked Economics 101.
The difference was that FDR was largely respected and admired by the public at large, whereas Trump never has been.
Dunno. A lot of people hated FDR. Our history books don't stress that, though. I grew up thinking no one hated FDR except my dad.
The whole point of Trumponomic’s tariffs is to benefit the working class.
