Trump outlines day one priorities

[RennisDeynolds]

That means the customer will pay atleast 20% more for the product. How is that not bad?

We'll be paying over 50% more. Think about how high markups are now. Pure profit as the grocery stores and retailers chase all time highs in the name of endless shareholder value.

They pay 20% more. They will be taxing the fukk out of the consumer

Fire everyone currently working in the White House from handymen, landscapers, maria and jose and other cleaners

I can't tell if Trump is stupid or unreasonably arrogant, or a combination of both

He could have honestly not said anything about the tariffs and just implemented them. He put a 14% tariff on a shyt ton of things during his first term and most people dont know or care. He could have done the same here, and 99% of the population wouldn't have even realized it.

Instead he tripled down on this foolishness and said it literally every chance he got.

This seems to be ignoring price conscious folk. Mind you, you only increased your stuff by a bit.

GUESS WHAT! So did every. other. business. If your shyt is not a necessity, you will see declines. Also, others may very well impose nearly flat increases on products rather than averaging it. We are already in the gouging era, and Lina Khan, Rohit Chopra, and Liz Warren won't be there to take companies to task.

The small business owners that voted for him potentially shot themselves in the foot depending on what they are selling.
If the regular person isn't seeing an increase in funds, they aren't going to spend it on things they don't need if prices go up

People are dumb and there's no saving them.

 

[Macallik86]

a 20% tariff is not that bad. China still cheapest in the market at that rate.

I usually do 50k orders. Import tax usually is 6k to clear. Might be 7 to 8k next time. Not that bad considering ordering in the US or Canada for the same amount of inventory at the same quality would cost 200k

You know the tax is on everything and not your lil dropshipping hustle right?

This will be an excuse for retailers to increase their prices as well.

It will likely hurt those small businesses that eat off consumer loyalty because when people have to spend more money on other good and services they don’t buy as much.

This will be an excuse for retailers to increase their prices as well.

Maybe that will open the door for someone else to produce products

 

[Swirv]

That tariff is gonna fukk us hard, hope y'all ready. Funny shyt is then corporations are gonna use that as justification to raise prices of American made goods too

They’ll have to when so many components are made overseas. Trump will devalue the dollar thinking it’ll boost exports but countries may turn to each-other for more trade.

If you are an Arab he is going to try and send you there.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Retailers are already price gouging and blaming it on inflation. They’re going to increase their prices even higher than it needs to be to increase their profits and then just blame the increase on tariffs.

People won’t care til eggs are 7 bucks a carton again.
