You're wrong on both accounts. Real GDP doesn't include inflation and Real GDP is what was up 4.3%. Tariffs generally reduce GDP because they typically raise the costs of imports (imports count against GDP) and tend to decrease exports which also reduces GDP.

So GDP is up despite tariffs, not due to tariffs. You missed that lesson when you were out surfing.

Your going to have to give me your login or a Cliff Notes version. I'm guessing it says that if the Fed lower rates it will stimulate the economy and jobs, but will not lower or will increase inflation. If Fed holds or increase rates, it will mitigate inflation but hurt jobs. It's always a tradeoff...except for Carter who somehow managed to have high inflation and high unemployment.
