Why does EVERYONE keep reporting on these tariffs without making it clear that a tariff is a tax paid by US imoorters and recovered in the price the US customer pays? Deal, no deal, the foreign business may lose sales, but they're paying nothing to the US.

Not sure there is a need for that every single time? Reporters from left leaning or third independent media boom world be telling people who already know what tariffs mean, whilst the mainstream like fox have no desire to educate their base.

I think that even if they're mainly preaching to the converted, it's important to fill the internet with facts to make it more likely that people will encounter the truth.

But Deluded Donnie can't read and doesn't comprehend what tariffs are. He still thinks they're punitive on the overseas exporter and not on the domestic importer.
