If the end game is to go back to go to no tariffs...won't they all just move back there?

So, now you have disrupted a supply chain twice.....or now Trump goes after whatever the next country on the list is...and we play whack a mole with cheap labor.

You couple that with eh fact that Trump is all about trying to be protectionist to get more US manufacturing...and all of this does nto add up.

The only thing that adds up is Trump is doing whatever he can do to raise the price of imports so being American made is the best alternative
