'Not What We Signed Up For': Trump Voter Rips Trump Policies To WSJ -- Says 'I Don't Like Chaos'

[LeftInTX]

59. An investor?? Tariff threats, market turbulence causing jitters early in Trump's second term

The Mediate article references a WSJ article with the following title:

The Mood of the American Consumer is Souring

Of course, article is totally paywalled.

I guess the guy isn't worried about eggs as much as his portfolio??????

“I don’t like the turbulence. I don’t like the chaos in the market,” said Paul Bisson, a 58-year-old, who writes proposals for a flight safety company and co-owns a dog daycare in San Antonio. Bisson voted for Trump, but feels “his policies have led to that chaos.”

Bisson is hoping to retire in the not-too-distant future, and is worried that won’t be possible if Trump follows through with his tariff threats rather than just using them as a negotiating tactic.

“That will make the economy worse, and that’s not what we signed up for,” Bisson said. “We’ve already cut back. There’s no more cutting back to do.”
