Big business isn't worried because Trump is setting them up to gobble up smaller businesses CHEAPLY. Making big businesses even richer. This is ALL about making the richer wealthier and the rest of us poorer.
No need for that! I want him in prison for his crimes! I want to see him when he understand he and his family is hated for decades to come! No need for violence or hate. Just pure justice!
My “small biz” story is based on a client’s experience this week. Was able to cancel some overseas orders but has to pay 32% plus other fees (Taiwan) on a crap-ton of production equipment which were custom/not cancellable, and will not pay off over time.
Funny that once you say there’s a deal in the works, the uncertainty is off the charts - particularly for big business. Do I consider on-shoring my production, knowing that my costs are minimum in the hundreds of millions or billions… knowing that some bigger fish will make a deal and screw me?
He's so full of shit. Big business is worried about it, too. They have to pay tariffs just like everyone else. The difference is that they may be able to afford to absorb losses in the short term. But they will have to charge more eventually. Car companies already shot themselves in the foot...
by previously raising the price of cars and trucks to exorbitant amounts. They're already feeling the pain in low sales. The tariffs will hurt everyone. But yes, it will fuck over small businesses harder because they can't absorb the losses and I feel like that was the plan all along.
He's such an arrogant piece of shit that he thinks no everyone takes his word as gospel and are too stupid to see the truth in front of their face. I know his supporters are that dumb, but the rest of the world isn't. It's all so fucking infuriating.
I’m a small business owner and last night I was looking up a few bulk supplies from vendors I use, the prices have shot up, I didn’t even look at everything just quickly browsed. This is going to be such a shit show for me. This morning I was talking to my husband bc I may have to close shop.
I understand and I’m so sorry. He never cared about the little guy, he even said as much and yet MAGA … and I’ll never get over those who stayed home and didn’t vote
I’m sorry! I’m so fucking furious all the time about what he’s doing to our country! I hope you can find a way to survive this. If you need help promoting your business, I’ll be glad to help you!
Republican lawmakers could stop all of this tomorrow, but they won’t, not because they don’t see how this hurts Americans but, because they want to hurt Americans
Heard a story about a guy that sells bicycles. He imports them from Taiwan. He has bicycles he’s ordered (and possibly paid for) sitting at the port because he can’t afford the 34% tariff. He can’t possibly charge his customers 34% more, and his margin is less than 34%.
…production equipment that will be underwater for past its productive life (in this case about 5 years), and there is no recourse: they are on the hook for it and it’s going on the water now. 32% higher for a smallish business. They’re fucked.
That bike importer is a great example. I know abusiness in the same boat, literally: they were able to pull plug on some of their overseas orders, but for others, there is no force majure clause, so they are looking at 32% higher cost, plus handling, from Taiwan, for production equipment.
He’s going to claim the tariffs brought in so much $ that he’s going to give it back as a tax cut. Of course the tax cut will go to the 1%, but he’ll lie and the base will believe. Side benefit, his buddies get to pick up some cheap stocks along the way.

I wonder if he knows that a lot if your businesses do not like the tariffs, here in the UK we don't mind too much because we mostly buy stuff imported from the EU, vehicles, food stuffs, that sort of thing. One thing I don't think he's thought about is this one on China, I wonder if he knows his
You mean the one where those who have cancer say are left to rot from the inside out and thise with all the money get the treatment, you mean that health plan?
The man has no plan, he is only 8nterested in himself and anyone with money. He's like Boris Johnson, just a Pound land bully and will be dealt with in due course, like all bullies he won't like it.
He’s saying it right to our faces! They’re crashing it so that the “haves” can buy it all up. Big corporations will simply eliminate the competition. Small businesses lose. This was always the plan.
I would love to hear what small businesses owners who voted for Trump have to say about his attitude towards them and the impact of tariffs on their livelihoods.

Historically, it's never been more than 5%.
