Ben Shapiro and Sean Hannity caution about the impact of tariffs following Trump’s comments on toys.
Some of President Trump’s most vocal media supporters are sounding alarms about the potential “pain” resulting from his extensive tariffs.
Ben Shapiro, the founder of the Daily Wire, has criticized Trump for downplaying worries among American consumers, particularly concerning a hefty 145% tariff on China that could reignite inflation.
“It’s a ‘feeding them’ approach to politics,” Shapiro said during his Thursday show.

He played a clip of Trump making controversial statements about tariffs during a Cabinet meeting earlier in the week. Shapiro contended that such remarks about empty store shelves would not actually convey benefits.
“It’s a huge advertisement for Democrats. President Trump should really steer clear of that kind of language,” he remarked.
“This isn’t going to benefit Republicans in future elections,” Shapiro added.
On another note, Fox News host Sean Hannity cautioned that consumers would indeed experience hardship once Trump’s sweeping tariffs take effect. Analysts have indicated that import taxes could drive supply chain costs up in various sectors.
“Failing to acknowledge the pain that comes with this transition is simply not fair,” Hannity stated on his show.

Nevertheless, he commended the president for attracting significant investments from both foreign and domestic firms into the U.S. manufacturing sector, including $500 billion commitments from tech giants Softbank and Oracle, aimed at enhancing production from companies like Hyundai.
Hannity expressed that he feels “more confident than ever” about Trump’s trade plan, particularly after speaking with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
