i belong to a couple of groups of logistics professionals.
China is trying to move it through other countries and even offering to list the invoices to show labor and processing / handing charges rather then product charges. So far it does not appear any country is helping them move anything . Any buyer here that takes them up on the modified invoice offer is potentially risking charges if caught so i dont think most will do much.

Trump is allowing immigrants to stay to work on farms and hotels and “other places” but we’re suddenly going to have people to work manufacturing jobs?

Companies are automating left and right but now businesses are going to be super generous and give us high paying manufacturing jobs?

And customers who complained about fast food workers getting raises because it would raise the price of their hamburger are now going to pay higher prices from tariffs AND American manufacturing costs?

This is so stupid and not thought out, but it seems like Trump and his voters are too stubborn to admit they wrong

trump said they have to leave , go through the vetting process and then can come back. thats consistent with what he's told all illegal immigrants. don't try to create controversy where non exists.

I know that you believe whatever they tell you, but you also believe that’s really going to happen?

Who’s going to tend to the farms while they’re going through the vetting process? Americans? And do the Americans then lose their jobs when the immigrants come back to America?

you realize this is the same argument slaving owning democrats used to justify having slaves work their farms?
legal properly vetted immigrants will work those farms. legal properly vetted workers on farm visa's will work those farms. same as we've done for many years .

Burgers are cheaper for us with tariffs. No imported meats, means grown in America, slaughtered in America, and cooked in America. Quit trying to put an way outside view point that is defunct against it.

This is the same logic as people saying the stock market went up under Trump, because he tanked it 15% then it goes up 3% and is only down 12%

Are you of the opinion that we didn't have enough farm labor already when Biden decided to let up to 14 million in unvetted in four years?
