Sara Eisen Tells The View Markets Favor Trump, Says Tariffs Hurt Less Than Predicted

Her on-air assessment came days after a Supreme Court ruling curtailed the president’s authority to impose the tariffs.

Overview

  • On ABC’s The View, the CNBC anchor said “the market likes this president” and cited upbeat corporate sentiment linked to deregulation and the tax bill.
  • Eisen argued Trump’s tariffs proved less damaging than forecasts, saying many firms absorbed costs and profits remain elevated.
  • Whoopi Goldberg maintained markets largely ignore presidents, while Sunny Hostin and Joy Behar questioned growth benefits and emphasized that gains skew to wealthier investors.
  • Eisen urged broader stock ownership through expanded 401(k) access, as right-leaning outlets widely circulated the exchange as a rebuke to the panel.
  • The segment followed a 6–3 Supreme Court decision finding the president lacked IEEPA authority to impose the tariffs, leaving previously collected revenues—estimated near $175 billion—without clear guidance.
