When the boardroom doors shut and the cameras are off đ„đȘ, Americaâs top CEOs are brutally honest â and theyâre not mincing words. Many believe Trumpâs tariff war is a ticking time bomb for U.S. business đŁđ.
đ One major manufacturing CEO laid it out crystal clear:
> âTariffs alone wonât bring back every industry. đ Consumers want low-cost goods â sneakers, clothing, tools. Not everything makes sense to produce in the U.S. Without smart incentives, tariffs just choke the system.â
đĄ Translation? America canât snap its fingers and make all global supply chains magically local. Cheap goods = global sourcing. đâïž
đ Nearly three-quarters of executives agree with the courts: Trumpâs tariffs are illegal as implemented. If the Supreme Court weighs in and backs that view âïž, corporate America could be thrown back into chaotic uncertainty đ â with investment plans on ice.
Another U.S.-focused CEO added his own frustration:
> âYes, we need to bring back manufacturing. But I donât trust the stability of trade policy. Tariffs change in 90â120 days. How can I make long-term decisions if I might look like a fool six months later?â đ€·ââïž
đ„ Thatâs the hidden truth: while Trump sells tariffs as a âMade in America revivalâ đŠ , corporate leaders fear itâs more like a roulette table đ° â risky, unstable, and ultimately bad for business.
