In the short term yes, but in the long term the country is going to "boom"!

Like most changes that need to be made for the better, it takes time. Common sense dictates this. I think this is going to bring a strong economy in the long run.

I believe President Trump’s tariff strategy will cause some short-term disruption to the economy, including market volatility due to uncertainty and a temporary rise in the cost of goods. This is to be expected while we renegotiate trade agreements and as China continues to resist fair terms—despite lacking a strong position in this standoff.
However, I see this period of economic tension as brief, likely lasting only a few months. Once the new trade deals are in place—expanding our leverage in global markets—and as domestic manufacturing begins to return, the long-term benefits will outweigh the short-term costs. Tariff revenue that remains in place will contribute to national income, and the combined effect of improved trade terms and revitalized industry will lead to unprecedented growth in both our economy and the markets.

Long-term, I believe this will result in a robust economy, but it takes time, as most positive changes do. Common sense mandates this. Play the thrilling horror game REPO for more fun!

As soon as the new trade agreements are in place, increasing our influence in international markets, and as domestic manufacturing starts to recover, the long-term advantages will surpass the short-term expenses, so I think this time of economic strain will only last a few months.
