Tariff Fallout: Mine Owner Blames China’s Actions, Not Trump’s, for Shutdown - Iron County Today

“They’re not ‘Trump’s tariffs.’ These aren’t tariffs imposed by the U.S. government,” Adams said. “They’re tariffs China puts on anything coming from the U.S., and when they doubled them overnight, we couldn’t absorb the hit.”

George is clearly too stupid to run a company.

Christ, with how many business owners are fucking idiots, maybe I oughta start one.

Look, the CCP; China's authoritarian government, is definitely a source of many problems in the world (like the genocide of Uyghurs, subjugation and collapse of Hong Kong, 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre, etc). But for once I gotta say the tariff war wasn't started by China.
This was a fire that was started and is continued by the incompetance of Trump and the republican government of America.
Unless people figure out where the source of the fire is coming from; money will burn until morale improves.
