Temu, taobao, alibaba all openly show 150% tariffs in their ui.
Go try checking out.

Amazon might hide it but it sells all the same products so not gonna deceive many

I don't think you understand how stupid the average person is. There is a decent chance this will all be biden inflation in their minds and not tariffs if there isn't literally a thing that says "tariff charge" on it. Even then they will probably see that and think it's just there to lie and hurt Trump

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

given how much tariffs have permeated the news and people's bank accounts and retirement accounts I don't think there's much avoidance of the topic

It's just another example of their incompetence.

They ought to be proud of labeling the tariffed products, so that customers could easier choose the domestic brands, which supposedly is the point of having the tariffs in the first place.

Attempting to hide it only shows that they realize how bad the tariffs really are.

Had they labelled them "Trump's beautiful tariffs" it would have gone smoothly

Trump has been bragging about how he would put tariffs on everything for a few years. Why is pointing out the tariffs he is bragging about an act of hostility towards him? You would think he would want his accomplishment to be pointed out.

You know, I never knew who any of Biden's press secretaries were. They were never spouting insane bullshit, I guess.

I would be pissed if they didn't. Getting surprised AFTER the purchase with an extra... whatever percentage Trump has settled on this week, would be absolutely infuriating.
