Über diesen Titel

Let’s take a closer look at the economic landscape that unfolded for the middle class during Donald Trump's presidency. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 aimed to give families a financial boost, encouraging spending and investment by putting more money into their pockets. Supporters celebrated this move, believing it would ignite economic growth by increasing disposable income for working families.
Now, the effects of this policy were evident. By the summer of 2019, median household income had seen a significant jump, reaching nearly $66,000, a rise of about $5,000 adjusted for inflation. On the surface, it looked like middle-class Americans were experiencing a bit of a financial renaissance.
However, as we dive deeper, we see that the big picture isn’t quite so rosy for everyone. While incomes were climbing, the administration was also imposing tariffs on imports—think steel and aluminum, which caused the price of various goods to rise. So, while some were making more money, many found their dollars didn’t stretch as far as they used to, thanks to those increased costs.
