It sure would help if Americans weren’t generally ignorant about uh… tons of stuff and especially anything that involves other countries. All sorts of fruits and vegetables are imported - green beans, cucumbers, squash, tomatoes, lettuce, berries, bananas, onions, cauliflower, broccoli, eggplant. And then at the same time, the Trump bros want to crack down on groups of people who make up a large portion of the domestic agricultural workforce? It’s difficult to see some conservative policies as intended to do anything other than just fuck people over and cause chaos.

They are going to blame the deep state or some marginalized group other than the one they just deported

It’s those darn liberal environmental and labor regulations

They would blame Biden, Harris, Obama and Hillary Clinton for these things and more.

Jokes aside, people will only start being outraged when Starbucks and Dunkin’ start selling their favorite drinks for $15+. I only hope that when things get to that point people start taking the streets in protest.

and I'll probably just pay the tariffs and move on because half the time stuff made in the US falls apart or is laced with pesticides banned elsewhere

Yep. If you're rich enough to can profit off the economy tanking

I think thats what the crypto people are banking on. Rapid inflation. You're better off just buying imported goods now though, you can always sell them the crypto people at a markup later. Real goods have far more intrinsic value.

There is also seasonal trade to US even when it grows in US.

New FDA head will just change the food pyramid to Coca Cola is a vegetable.

Right, if all you eat is meat, wheat, corn syrup and potatoes, no problem!
