Trump’s prices become such a important source of income that they now supported the debt rating of America

The S&P Global rating agency has had good and bad news on the prospects for American deficit. The good news is that it will not get worse. The bad news is that it will not improve either.
A key factor for deficit forecasts is President Donald Trump’s prices, which should help compensate for the impact of tax reductions and expenses in the federal budget.
S&P reaffirmed its AA + note on American debt last week, citing the overall force of the economy, institutions that provide effective controls and counterweights, proactive monetary policy and dollar status as a global reserve mastery.
The perspectives of the credit rating, which are below the upper AAA category, remains stable because the deficit will not last the photo.
“This includes our point of view that the changes underway in national and international policies will not weigh on the resilience and diversity of the American economy,” said S&P in a statement. “And, in turn, a large buoyancy of income, including robust tariff income, will compensate for any budgetary shift in tax reductions and expenditure increases.”
The Big Beautiful Bill Act of Trump is expected to add billions of dollars to the deficit in the next decade, while new tax reductions have been added while expenses have discounts of certain programs and hikes to others. At the same time, the Congressional Budget Office sees prices raving billions of dollars with deficit.
S&P actually see a certain improvement in the deficit, which should be reduced to 6% of GDP from 2025 to 2028, compared to 7.5% in 2024 and an average of 9.8% from 2020 to 2023. But that will not prevent total debt from bringing the previous records of the last record during the Second World War.
Meanwhile, S&P sees the growth of GDP is accelerating at an average pace of 2% in 2027 and 2028, against 1.7% in 2025 and 1.6% in 2026.
“The combined implementation and execution of the One Big Beautiful Bill law, higher pricing income gains and their effect on growth and investment will indicate whether the budgetary trajectory is improving or worsening,” added S&P.
So many get on prices. And given Washington’s reluctance to increase income via income tax increases, analysts stressed around $ 300 to 400 billion per year of tariff income to turn away, which means that the samples are probably there to stay.
But the so-called reciprocal rates are faced with legal challenges that dispute their legal justification under the International Economic Economic Powers (IEEPA).
A decision of a federal court of appeal is expected at the end of September, but could arrive at the end of August. And a letter of officials from the Ministry of Justice with Doomsday warnings on what would happen if prices were slaughtered on some to Wall Street that the administration fears a loss of justice.
“In such a scenario, people would be forced from their home, millions of jobs would be eliminated, workers will lose their savings, and even social security and health insurance could be threatened,” the officials wrote. “In short, the economic consequences would be ruinous, instead of an unprecedented success.”
Given the importance of pricing income for the American credit rating, what would happen if the reciprocal tasks were canceled? Would the United States be demoted? S&P did not respond to a request for comments.
Meanwhile, not everyone is as optimistic about prices as S&P and the CBO. Fitch Ratings also reaffirmed its AA + US credit rating last week, but sees deficits aggravating despite the price of pricing income.
The deficit should reduce this year to 6.9% of GDP this year, compared to 7.7% in 2024, because the resilient economy, the solid stock market and pricing income send higher federal receipts. But when new tax reductions set up next year, the situation will actually become worse than in 2024, because global income drops. Fitch sees deficits stand up to 7.8% of GDP in 2026 and 7.9% in 2027.
“Government’s revenues will fall, fired by additional tax exemptions on advice and overtime, expanded deductions for state and local taxes (salt), and additional deductions for people over 65 included in OBBBA, despite the continuous increases in tariff income, which expects an average statement of 300 billion USD in the two years. said the Rating Agency in a declaration.
