lol stores are gonna start getting cleaned out on the regular. And they’re gonna stay empty.
Are we winning yet?
Its also what the stores voted for. Almost every major corporation wanted Trump and heavily lobbied for him to get in. News outlets, grocery chains, retail stores, tech companies, every large corporation wanted this.
Source?
Source is all news from the last year? There are hundreds of stories on who contributed to his campaign and caved to his policies.

Unfortunately, it seems this needs to happen to wake people the fuck up.
Another article today about people literally having no concept of why the websites they're shopping on is suddenly way more expensive (and explicitly showing the tariff costs).
People are surprised by this, and many of them have literally never even heard the word "tariff" before.
And the illiterate yokels in 12 months time: "Tariff?! That sounds like one of them thar a-rab names!!"
especially chinese sites that deliver to usa.

Nah. We've already seen businesses implementing digital price tags for just this occurrence.
Your stores will stay stocked. You're just going to see merch doubling and tripling in price as inventory depletes.
Eventually, you'll walk into a store, see a single pair of jeans on the rack, and read a $1000 price tag on it because it's the last pair of that style in 20 miles.
Sounds like a scalpers wet dream
the toilet paper crisis will soon be on the scene again.
i heard the shore employees are going to lose thier jobs the moment it stays empty.

Yay, another COVID style supply chain apocalypse. This time brought on entirely by American conservatives and their lack of brain cells.
Buy exactly ZERO gifts for your conservative family members for their bdays and Xmas and make sure to tell them it's because of the new Trump Tax.
Make it "republican tax". This is not trump tax

Excited to revisit the discourse on price gouging for the next few months.
There is no price gouging in U.S.A.
The Orange King has invited you to Lake Gitmo.
Lean inventory and just in time supply management for the win!
I suspect many more Americans may actually start to feel feelings about Trump when they can't participate in the great American pastime of buying more shit.
No bread, no circus. The first already happened a while ago, but losing the second shows a possible hilarious miscalculation from Trumps lot. The blowback is going to be interesting. Though I also worry it's a way to force people out in the streets as they are laying the groundwork for unrest.
Question for the class: aside from the obvious like computers and technology, what category items are we expecting to be hit hardest? Or to ask pointedly, what items that we NEED might be affected?
Baby care items are going to get hit hard.

Uprisings eminent.
I am using a portion of my savings to prepare before things run dry. Some extra food, but mostly renovations or big ticket items. New sink and a bidet toilet, my first ever smartphone, physical cash in the form of Euros, a 24tb drive to prep for replacing my Windows OS with Linux, a gun club membership and ammo, ect.
Before Trump was a thing, I was planning on just sitting on my life savings and let it grow, only touching it when I hit 60 or 70. That is out the window, since odds are that Trump's regime will kill me for being an progressive autistic. Fun times. 😩
