Lady who owned the shop seemed genuinely worried about the tariffs as do a lot of other Europeans I have met. I'm sure said lady isn't sending boat loads of T-shirts over to the US so I was unsure how it affects them. Global economics not being my strong point, can anyone explain?
His plan is to make goods from other countries more expensive to try and get more manufacturing back into America. He's about 40 years too late, as that boat has sailed.

It appeases the MAGA supporting fruitloops into believing he is doing it for them.


He will probably back track on these tariffs fairly soon in my opinion.

His numbers used to justify the tarrifs were laughable.
