Kids will get fewer toys thanks to tariffs--and Grinch Trump says deal with it [View all]

President Donald Trump on Wednesday admitted that his idiotic tariffs will lead to empty shelves at stores across the country, but said that it's fine because we don't need material items anyway.

"They made a trillion dollars with Biden ... selling us stuff. Much of it we don't need," Trump said of China during an insane Cabinet meeting in which his administration officials rained North Korea levels of praise on their Dear Leader. "Somebody said, 'Oh, the shelves are gonna be open.' Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, and maybe the two dolls will cost a couple of bucks more than they would normally."

Of course, China sells much more than just toys to the United States.

In 2022, “China was the top supplier of goods to the United States, accounting for 16.5 percent of total goods imports,” according to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, which said that China supplied $536.3 billion worth of goods to the United States.
