Would that not just make US products more expensive for us? Not that I'm buying many US based goods these days.

To be honest I don't even know what are our major imports from America are.

I was trying to figure out the same thing, Ford Utes? But they might actually be made somewhere in SEA for all I know given they're right-hand drive models. Teslas will be coming from there and it would be a good energy move to put tarrifs on electric vehicles imported from USA just to spite space karen. I'm sure there's plenty of other mundane stuff we just don't think about.
