Americans stockpile basic goods as Trump’s tariffs come into force

He really is recreating the COVID economy. And this time, we don't even have Animal Crossing to get us through it

Americans are going to continue to panic shop, and there will be a short spending spike for the next 90 days during the tariff “pause” - meanwhile the countries who can’t take the hit will play bullshit ball with Trump on speakerphone. By tariff subscription auto-renew in July, wow, look at that, spending in the last three months was bonkers the tariffs worked everyone mission accomplished 🇺🇸🧠📈💣
