    Americans will still keep buying from china, they will just be paying higher tax.

      I’m not actually sure that’s true with the truly absurd tarriff that trump has levied. Sure the stuff that’s on hold will keep getting bought from China but other stuff will almost certainly be cheaper from other countries at this point. Nearly tripling the pre sale cost is not good for business.
