They will bury his butt by shipping NOTHING. The consequences are being seen in US ports right now, where shipments from Asia are WAY down--and nothing scheduled for replacements...
Let's watch how fast Spankee decides NO TARIFFS. The shortages will not show up immediately. Rather, in May/June, after current inventory gets sold--and there is nothing to replace it.

100% and the flip side is going to be equally catastrophic.
One example: (And this from Rupert Murdoch owned, Right-Wing NY Post!)
"US farmers in ‘full-blown crisis’ as Chinese orders for pork, soybeans plunge on Trump tariffs."
"China also dropped its soybean orders to just 1,800 tons worth in the week ending April 17 – down massively from 72,800 tons purchased the week before."
"The impact of cancelled Chinese orders will be felt across the industry – starting with farms forced to shutter, then slamming the longshoremen out of work from cancelled sailings, then the truck drivers who transport goods from the ports."
