American consumers will have to pay the $72 BILLION in Trump’s tariffs.  A CNBC news report in May 2019 stated that Trump’s existing tariffs are equivalent to one of the largest tax increases in decades. An analysis of data from the Treasury Department ranked the $72 billion in tariff revenue (borne by U.S. consumers) as effectively the biggest tax increase since 1993. A former Treasury official estimated the tariffs will cost the median household earning $61,000 about $500 a year.
