Taking away cheap Chinese goods might be one of the few things that will wake a few Americans up?
Americans aren’t going to wake up. They are gonna keep bowing down and eating shit.
It’s really impressive how passive Americans have become.
Where are they going to put them all? There aren’t enough warehouses in all of LA. Return to sender… toss in the ocean?
Yeah except a lot of people use it for specific parts that go to different things
We can only hope. I’m open for anything at this point. $6/dozen eggs didn’t do it, even thought most voted for Trump to do a grocery, which he hasn’t done yet…

With zero explanation. You’ve got to love the transparency and accountability of this government.
Already changed. The chaos is the point.
And just for clarity: How much panic biting do you think this just produced?
The interesting thing is its just the same dude Trump appointed, who has been there for like 8 years now and not some random tehcnobros doing it.
Well there goes TEMU, ALIEXPRESS and SHEIN in one fell swoop
Isn’t this just USPS? Or are they blocking DHL, FedEx, etc as well?
Every package I’ve gotten via DHL was fulfilled by USPS, though. Do they even have the infrastructure to handle their own deliveries?
USPS does the last mile, so I guess if you use an alternative carrier it wouldn’t be stopped at the border and fulfilled as usual, unless USPS actively looks at the from address and blocks it and the handover as well.
Last mile just ended with UPS.

This will be a boon to UPS, DHL and FedEx as they will pick up the business. Wonder if there was a kick-back in the deal. Private subcontractors may spring up too.
Lol. Its not that they can’t do it, they just won’t for current prices. There won’t be a boon unless people are willing to pay a shit load more for shipping.
Is Wish not a thing anymore?
Wish got replaced with Temu. AliExpress is like the Amazon of cheap chineseum stuff and has a better selection than all the rest.
If they’re clever, they’ll just ship items to a waystation in Mexico where they’ll be relabeled.
for the next 28.5 days, yes
But muh Aliexpress.us!!!
There goes my giant Gardevoir plushie!
They’ve already changed they’re minds.
It’ll be interesting when people can’t get their new iPhones.
Those aren’t delivered to Apple by USPS. Same with Amazon, Walmart etc getting Chinese stuff by container ship to sell you at huge markups. What’s stopped is you being able to get the same stuff online directly. You can’t be allowed to bypass Trump-donor intermediaries like that!
Good point. All my phones have been UPS or FedEx, now that I think about it.
The Chinese are more clever than the clowns. They probably have a plan already.
iPhones go by UPS and FedEx.
Guh
F in chat for my ultrasonic cleaner ಥ_ಥ
Ha this is actually going to hit the fentanyl trade pretty hard
Nah, the US exports will be untouched in this regard… Now, if any other country will still want our fenty, who knows? At this point, fenty from the US would be like getting your fenty from a corner dealer anyways.
Afaik most fentanyl in the US is produced in the US with raw materials imported like that from China
