Tariffs are paid by the importer so it will just make your feeds more expensive to import to your device.
I know how it works I just wanted to make a joke.
please forgive
I was joking too. 😅
If anyone hasn't learned how tariffs work by now, they are choosing to be ignorant.
Damn you will become reallyvwealthy dude!
Well that's entirely the posters fault.
They're really fanatic in wanting to post every stupid thing he says or does (which is daily).
As if there isn't any real news out there.
Not Nvidia and not Apple. That's so ridiculous. It will just increase the price of any electronics devices.
Yam Tits just heard the term, hence the sudden tariffs.
Anyone remember the punchable faces subreddit?
Yeah, this face would be forever pinned at the top.
Could I not just avoid this entirely by buying electronic products from literally anywhere else though?
If you are in the US how do you think that would work? If you are not then it really does not matter since the US is not a major chip producer afaik.
I heard the cartels have a sale this weekend on NVIDIA cards
He will remove tarrifs on goods containing microchips in spectacular fashion.
What's interesting about this is that Ghislaine Maxwell just got a transfer to a cushy facility in exchange for what is likely to be heavily coached testimony about how Donald Trump totally didn't rape children.
My hope is that he signs the pardon before she testifies, and then she burns him down on the stand.
As if she would.. She will just do what she do best, just not for Epstein, but for mr president himself, I fear…
Why would he pardon her? Prison is sheer hell and she got a huge upgrade. Fuck around and they can take that back. They got all the leverage they need without the screams of outrage a pardon would bring.

I read those news in a way that she's now in a low risk facility with plenty of other people around who might casually remove a witness, rather than stuck in isolation in a max security prison where every 'suicide' would be met with public outrage.

It’s fucking tariff roulette again. And so it will be for the next 3.5 years. Stupid cunts. Remember to kick a republican in the nuts.
Next 3.5 years if we are lucky.
The last 6 months have been the longest decade of my life.

All the dangers they tell us about being over weight and eating like shit, and this mother fucker is still clinging to life like an 80s action hero clings to the underside of a helicopter at the climax of the movie. Come on clogged arteries, do something!

Conservatives are 100% onboard with a felon rapist pedo skyrocketing our cost of living while destroying our global reputation.
If anyone is still unsure if conservatives are traitors to our nation, now is the time to pinch yourself and wake up.

Wouldn't this only affect goods manufactured in the USA? If a finished product containing chips from say, Europe, were to land on USA shores it would only have a 15% tariff right?
Why does trump hate American manufacturing?
It's a tax of 100% on chips being imported to the USA, having been manufactured elsewhere. The idea is that it should force companies to set up their own chip manufacturing in the USA. But that's expensive and slow to do, and requires a lot of specialized engineering talent, so US-based electronics companies will somehow have to survive through years of paying twice as much for the chips they build into their products. This will mean significant price increases for Americans buying electronics, as the unavoidable costs are passed on.

What do you mean "likely pushing up cost of electronics". That is the literal point of a tariff, to push the prices up and make competing goods more appealing to consumers. The only way it doesnt raise prices is if importers just eat the cost, which they will almost certainly not do and, frankly, shouldn't do.

From the bleachers, we watch the Trump shitshow daily. The topic of the show is: "What can Donald Trump still do today to appear even dumber than the day before?"
And he is not disappointing. What's next? Tariffs for interstate trading? One must admit, this would be a really dumb idea, but it is not outside Trumps grasp.
