Specifically, many believe her to be perpetuating fraud by demanding money from her followers in exchange for specific acts of prosperity provided by God (and even to ask God to smite your enemies).
Sounds like the Prosperity Gospel to me.
They’re not “trying” to do this, they’re doing this because the tariffs increase the prices they have to pay to get their goods, so naturally they need to increase the price they sell said goods to consumers so that they can turn a profit and continue to exist as a business. This is not, was not, and never will be that hard to understand.

This is, sadly, the reasoning at the core of the problem in the heads of the people who know about the problem but choose not to do the right thing. They may rationalize away the cognitive dissonance of knowing they’re likely harming others and not wanting to think of themselves as a bad person by making up various excuses, but the truth of the matter is that human beings make decisions more based on emotion than reason, and most people are going to feel stronger feelings about the things that affect them and theirs than things that affect complete strangers. Our psychology—like most other aspects of us—evolved to function in small, tight-knit communities. We are simply not adapted to live in societies as large as we’ve created.
Thank goodness religion is fake bullshit.
