Trump's tariffs could pay for his tax cuts -- but it likely wouldn't be much of a bargain
WASHINGTON (AP) — The tax cuts in President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act would likely gouge a hole in the federal budget. The president has a patch handy, though: his sweeping import taxes — tariffs. The Congressional Budget Office, the government's nonpartisan arbiter of tax and spending matters, says the One Big Beautiful Bill, passed by the House last month and now under consideration in the Senate, would increase federal budget deficits by $2.4 trillion over the next decade. That is because its tax cuts would drain the government's coffers faster than its spending cuts would save money. By bringing in revenue for the Treasury, on the other hand, the tariffs that Trump announced through May 13 — including his so-called reciprocal levies of up to 50% on countries with which the United States has a trade deficit — would offset the budget impact of the tax-cut bill and reduce deficits over the next decade by $2.5 trillion. So it's basically a wash. That's the budget math anyway. The real answer is more complicated. Actually using tariffs to finance a big chunk of the federal government would be a painful and perilous undertaking, budget wonks say. 'It's a very dangerous way to try to raise revenue,' said Kent Smetters of the University of Pennsylvania's Penn Wharton Budget Model, who served in President George W. Bush's Treasury Department. Trump has long advocated tariffs as an economic elixir. He says they can protect American industries, bring factories back to the United States, give him leverage to win concessions over foreign governments — and raise a lot of money. He's even suggested that they could replace the federal income tax, which now brings in about half of federal revenue. 'It's possible we'll do a complete tax cut,'' he told reporters in April. 'I think the tariffs will be enough to cut all of the income tax.'' Economists and budget analysts do not share the president's enthusiasm for using tariffs to finance the government or to replace other taxes. 'It's a really bad trade,'' said Erica York, the Tax Foundation's vice president of federal tax policy. 'It's perhaps the dumbest tax reform you could design.'' For one thing, Trump's tariffs are an unstable source of revenue. He bypassed Congress and imposed his biggest import tax hikes through executive orders. That means a future president could simply reverse them. 'Or political whims in Congress could change, and they could decide, 'Hey, we're going revoke this authority because we don't think it's a good thing that the president can just unilaterally impose a $2 trillion tax hike,' '' York said. Or the courts could kill his tariffs before Congress or future presidents do. A federal court in New York has already struck down the centerpiece of his tariff program — the reciprocal and other levies he announced on what he called 'Liberation Day'' April 2 — saying he'd overstepped his authority. An appeals court has allowed the government to keep collecting the levies while the legal challenge winds its way through the court system. Economists also say that tariffs damage the economy. They are a tax on foreign products, paid by importers in the United States and usually passed along to their customers via higher prices. They raise costs for U.S. manufacturers that rely on imported raw materials, components and equipment, making them less competitive than foreign rivals that don't have to pay Trump's tariffs. Tariffs also invite retaliatory taxes on U.S. exports by foreign countries. Indeed, the European Union this week threatened 'countermeasures'' against Trump's unexpected move to raise his tariff on foreign steel and aluminum to 50%. 'You're not just getting the effect of a tax on the U.S. economy,' York said. 'You're also getting the effect of foreign taxes on U.S. exports.'' She said the tariffs will basically wipe out all economic benefits from the One Big Beautiful Bill's tax cuts. Smetters at the Penn Wharton Budget Model said that tariffs also isolate the United States and discourage foreigners from investing in its economy. Foreigners see U.S. Treasurys as a super-safe investment and now own about 30% of the federal government's debt. If they cut back, the federal government would have to pay higher interest rates on Treasury debt to attract a smaller number of potential investors domestically. Higher borrowing costs and reduced investment would wallop the economy, making tariffs the most economically destructive tax available, Smetters said — more than twice as costly in reduced economic growth and wages as what he sees as the next-most damaging: the tax on corporate earnings. Tariffs also hit the poor hardest. They end up being a tax on consumers, and the poor spend more of their income than wealthier people do. Even without the tariffs, the One Big Beautiful Bill slams the poorest because it makes deep cuts to federal food programs and to Medicaid, which provides health care to low-income Americans. After the bill's tax and spending cuts, an analysis by the Penn Wharton Budget Model found, the poorest fifth of American households earning less than $17,000 a year would see their incomes drop by $820 next year. The richest 0.1% earning more than $4.3 million a year would come out ahead by $390,070 in 2026. 'If you layer a regressive tax increase like tariffs on top of that, you make a lot of low- and middle-income households substantially worse off,'' said the Tax Foundation's York. Overall, she said, tariffs are 'a very unreliable source of revenue for the legal reasons, the political reasons as well as the economic reasons. They're a very, very inefficient way to raise revenue. If you raise a dollar of a revenue with tariffs, that's going to cause a lot more economic harm than raising revenue any other way.''

Boeing Stock Surges 54% On Trump Tariff Chaos: The DJ TACO Trade
On April 2, 2025—a date President Trump proclaimed "Liberation Day"—the administration announced the most sweeping tariff hike since the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, the 1930 law best remembered for triggering a global trade war and deepening the Great Depression. On April 4, Boeing's stock price hit $136.59. It closed Friday, June 6th at $210.86, a whopping 54% return in just two months. What has become known as the TACO trade—TACO stands for "Trump Always Chickens Out"—has earned the president the Wall Street nickname "DJ Taco." When Trump assumed the presidency for the second time, investors expected unprecedented investment opportunities driven by smaller government, balanced budgets, lower taxes, and fewer regulations. Most Republicans and even Democrats assumed as much. But DJ Taco's on-again, off-again tariff policies have become the primary market driver. The sentence "tariffs wreak havoc in markets" is widely understood by everyone on Wall Street. However, DJ Taco's approach makes 1930s communist central planning look like amateur hour, with random, nonsensical decisions creating unexpected opportunities for savvy investors willing to navigate the chaos. Most agree that having a more thoughtful approach to trade, especially with China, makes sense. But for most of the rest of the world, Trump's tariff strategy is more than head-scratching—it's bewildering. Take Boeing's relationships with Japan and Italy, two critical allies and aerospace partners. Boeing's CEO recently stated that tariffs are costing the company $500 million this year alone, yet the stock has soared on the volatility and uncertainty that defines the TACO trade phenomenon. Several fundamental drivers are powering Boeing's remarkable recovery, making it the ultimate beneficiary of the TACO trade dynamic. The Boeing 737 MAX backlog and production capacity support a significant ramp-up, with demand and infrastructure aligned for higher output and revenue growth. This positions the company perfectly to capitalize on both the chaos and eventual stabilization of trade policies. Short-term revenue and profit growth hinge on lifting the FAA's production cap and stabilizing at higher rates, with the potential for $400 billion in revenues by 2034. While an accelerated production increase offers substantial upside, Boeing must prioritize operational stability to avoid jeopardizing long-term prospects and balance sheet improvement. Despite near-term investor impatience, sustainable growth and production reliability remain key—pushing too fast risks undermining Boeing's recovery and future opportunities. The company is gaining momentum with higher production rates and strong net order value, outpacing Airbus in wide-body orders and overall order value. This competitive advantage becomes even more pronounced in the current trade environment, where supply chain disruptions and tariff uncertainties favor established American manufacturers with domestic production capabilities. Airbus leads in single-aisle deliveries but faces significant supply chain constraints, limiting its ability to ramp up production further. Both manufacturers are benefiting from robust demand, reflected in large backlogs, but Boeing's recovery and inventory deliveries give it a near-term edge that the TACO trade amplifies. The European manufacturer's supply chain vulnerabilities become more pronounced when trade policies shift unpredictably. If Airbus resolves its supply chain issues, it could quickly regain delivery share, making 2025 a pivotal year for both companies' production outlooks. However, the current tariff environment creates additional headwinds for international competitors while potentially benefiting domestic producers like Boeing. The TACO trade represents more than just Trump's tendency to reverse course on harsh rhetoric—it embodies the market's adaptation to policy whiplash. Investors have learned to position themselves for both the initial shock of aggressive announcements and the subsequent backpedaling that typically follows. Boeing exemplifies this dynamic perfectly. The company benefits from being perceived as both a victim of trade wars (driving sympathy buying) and a beneficiary of America First policies (attracting nationalist investment). When tariffs are announced, Boeing initially suffers due to retaliation concerns and supply chain disruptions. But when Trump inevitably "chickens out" or moderates his position, Boeing surges on relief rallies and renewed optimism about international partnerships. The aerospace giant's stock performance reflects this pattern: initial volatility followed by sustained gains as markets recognize the underlying strength of the business model and the temporary nature of most trade disruptions. Smart investors have learned to buy Boeing on tariff announcements and hold through the eventual policy reversals. DJ Taco's trade policies create a unique investment environment where companies with strong fundamentals but international exposure become prime TACO trade candidates. Boeing's 54% return in two months demonstrates how market participants can profit from policy inconsistency when they understand the underlying pattern. The key to successful TACO trading lies in identifying companies that will ultimately benefit from policy reversals while possessing the financial strength to weather initial disruptions. Boeing, with its essential role in American aerospace dominance and global commercial aviation, represents the perfect storm of characteristics that make TACO trades profitable. As we move forward, expect continued volatility around trade announcements, but also recognize that the TACO trade pattern creates predictable opportunities for investors willing to embrace the chaos of DJ Taco's policy-making style.
