Graphics cards will be the least of your worries. Putting tariffs on chips will crash the economy, there's no way anyone will let him do this.
They want the economy to crash.
One side because they like to crash businesses and then walk away with all the money, and they figure a country is no different.
And the other side will let them, because they want people to stop playing those degenerate evil video games. That it does great damage to the country is simply a just punishment for allowing such degeneracy in the first place, in their minds.
Wrong kind of crash and video games aren’t what’s being affected here. It’s cars, ai, defence contracts, Israel
There’s no way it would go through unless Trump is replacing Taiwan with China like he does with other targeted tariffs
I’m just saying that’s what they think. Of course it’s going to fuck everything else over, but the people supporting this in the hallowed halls of congress seem to be in one of two camps lately.
