"They" want us to lose hope,
wallow in despair and in general give up.

Don't let the bastards get you down.

Stop buying things after the new year. The economy is going to crash. Let's give it a push to get it going.
Prepare yourself for pain, it's going to get ugly.

I just looked up possible tariff products and found what I can live without -- anything imported from China gets a 60%-100% tariff; from any trading partners gets a 10%-20% tariff, increasing prices of electronics (90% are imported) and clothes (80% are imported) etc.
