9. They Had 10(!) Months of Inventory "Stockpiled"...

...in today's operational philosophy environment????
10 months? They would have started stockpiling 6 months before the election happened to get over 10 months of inventory. Why would they even do that? Biden was still running and the election was never a sure thing for the felon.
The answer: they wouldn't do that.
Plus, the carrying costs of such excess inventory would rival the cost of the tariffs on a lot of those products.
Plus, some of the unbought exports are perishable. So, 10 months is out of the question.
Just another attempt to paint a disastrous policy, executed disastrously, as a success, economically.
It's not.
