(DCNF)—Republican strategist Melik Adbul said on CNN Wednesday that President Donald Trump’s tariff policy appears to be effective so far.
Despite many economists forecasting that Trump’s sweeping tariffs would see higher inflation and other negative effects, several economic indicators have shown strength. Abdul, on “CNN News Central,” noted the stock market’s performance to bolster his claim.
“What happened earlier on, there was a lot of consternation, a lot of noise being created around tariffs, because it’s something that our presidents of the United States haven’t had as far as their economic agenda,” Abdul said. “Donald Trump has. And all of the gloom and doom that was predicted as far as the tariffs are concerned, they have not been realized.”
“So I think that you’ve seen what the markets are saying. You know, you have the great numbers that you just were talking about here. Until people actually feel the impact of whatever this gloom and doom scenario is, that’s when it will probably hurt Donald Trump,” he continued. “But at this point, Donald Trump’s tariff policy seems to be working. And I think it’s very difficult for Democrats to actually give him credit for that.”
In addition to the strong stock market, manufacturing output rose 0.1% in June following an upwardly revised 0.3% increase in May, the Federal Reserve Board reported on July 16. U.S. jobless claims for the week ending July 12 also fell by 7,000 to 221,000, the Department of Labor reported on July 17, marking five consecutive weeks of decline.
U.S. retail sales growth also rebounded more than expected in June, increasing 0.6%, according to advance estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau released July 17.
Moreover, Trump announced new trade deals on Tuesday with Japan and the Philippines.
The president wrote in a Truth Social post that the Japan deal is “perhaps the largest deal ever made.” He added that Japan will pay 15% reciprocal tariffs to the U.S. as part of the trade deal.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
