Some reports are that employers are cancelling Christmas bonuses in anticipation of Turd tariffs. Some cos. are pre- buying things now for warehousing to avoid tariffs.

I've heard similarly. Really goes to show how completely fucking backward people have it that they believe that Republicans are better on the economy (this has been true at least since the 80s, but it's unavoidable now).

They're good for the big corporations and billionaires, sure, but it's always at the expense of everyone else.

US companies that can fill the void for products that will be heavily tariffed will also just raise their prices because why wouldn't they? Maybe not as high as the product with the tariff, but definitely higher. The idea that it would reduce prices for anything is so goddamn asinine.

Insert, *sigh* of course they will bc capitalism. I'm doing major stock ups, have for months, in case of tariffs, to avoid supply chain problems.
