- Ipsos: "...a majority of Americans (66%) think these tariffs will raise the cost of the goods they buy, according to the latest data from the Ipsos Consumer Tracker. That perception is practically unanimous among Democrats (at 87%), but nearly half of Republicans feel the same."
- Ipsos notes: "We've also seen that high confidence the tariffs will happen in the first place: 81% of Americans think"it's likely that Trump will try to increase tariffs on imports from China and Mexico," according to a recent Ipsos poll for The New York Times."
