Summary

Donald Trump’s plan to impose sweeping tariffs on goods from Mexico, Canada, and China is raising alarm among U.S. businesses, which warn it could trigger price spikes and inflation.

Firms in industries like apparel, manufacturing, and food production fear disruptions similar to the last trade war under Trump, when retaliatory tariffs hurt exports and supply chains.

Critics argue tariffs won’t effectively reshore production or reduce the trade deficit and could lead to runaway inflation, economic instability, and consumer cost increases.

    I’m stocked up and I can run on fumes. Bring it on. I can’t wait to see these pampered little fucks burn in their own hypocrisy and helplessness.

    Chaotic good finally gets a day. I can compress my life into a pin prick if it means I get to see some right-winger lose his boat to repossession.
