Tariffs and sky high audio prices.


With the Chinese tariffs taking hold on 100% of the imports and maybe even on Mexico forthcoming, the audio industry is going to see another big jump in their sky high prices. Anyone making purchases ASAP to get lower prices from existing inventory before post tariff products enter the marketplace?

Pretty hard to not be one as defined these days. Maybe Kim Jong Un. Some aspire to be globalists but only if they get to call all the shots which can never happen. Sound familiar?
IT’s not at all at odds with America First. One always looks out for themselves first in any interaction. However good deals tend to be mutually beneficial.  You can’t just look out for yourself and expect a "good deal" Maybe with a gun to the other persons head but you will likely regret that later.



Okay, I think I see the confusion now. You guys seem to think globalist is the opposite of isolationist. Like the minute you do or even think about anything outside your own borders you're a globalist. Totally missing the point.

Read the definitions again. Two key elements: advocates; and "on a global basis."

Where has Trump ever advocated doing anything "on a global basis"? Not a day goes by he hasn't repeated that he's working in the best interest of America. For American's. Of course at any given time he can be talking about any country on the planet. Duh. That is not the point. If it was then the term would lose all meaning.

Which on that score there's actually a really fascinating reason why you guys so often misuse language in a way that is imprecise and blurs reality.

Maybe we get to that one later. For now, again, it should be obvious Trump is the opposite of globalist. Trump is the anti-globalist. And it would be nice to know that fact is acknowledged.
It’s easy to say you are or are not something. But the facts need to support the claim. Trumps business history is that of a globalist. But that will not sell well to his base so he now says he is the opposite a nationalist. He will say whatever he thinks will sell himself best that day. Means nothing. Always follow the facts and money, not words.

Right now he is a very unsuccessful globalist politician trying to strong-arm others to accept his deals.   Nationalists love that!   We’ll see how that works out...
