Nah not everywhere. A lot of governments that were going to allow starlink satellites and had booked investments turned away already.
Amazon labeled “hostile” by White House because tariff fees are shown on purchases. Says they’re partnering with China. Update: Amazon backs down.

If tariffs are so great, why are so many companies begging for exemptions from them?
If tariffs are so great, why did Trump beg Amazon not to show the impact of the tariffs to consumers?
I don’t understand.

I don’t think tariffs are great, it’s a tax, but for some reason it’s the only tax that bothers you. In Colorado they tax and fee everything that moves and we don’t hear a peep.

I’m dealing with the manufacturing side and I can tell you they are showing up on invoices and labeled as tariffs.

Why do other countries have tariffs on us if they are harmful?

Donald Trump: My tariffs won’t raise prices for consumers.
Also Donald Trump: Please don’t show the price increases my tariffs will mean for consumers.

@Sjacobs2020
Every blue state needs to pass a law that requires companies post any price increases due to tariffs.
1. We see the tariff tax increase
2. We see any price gouging

@MohSalarb
This is why they are in frantic mode sicne Amazon listed the tariff as a form of tax. The low i.g MAGA still believe China would pay for the tariff.

Trump just admitted showing tariff prices on Amazon was a problem.
MAGAs you have to be dumb not to see through this bullshyt, man. I refuse to believe all of you are really that stupid.

People often try to make it sound like communism is the only road to dictatorships. Communism is just a economic system not a political one. Dictatorships can live in capitalist nations too, and is often much uglier.

Trump is an old school central planner who wants to tax and spend (that's what tariffs are) and then pick winners and losers. It's an intellectually bankrupt concept that's long been debunked. But here we are with MAGA declaring him a genius.

most of his "money" is tied to the value of Amazon's stock. If the business suffers from any petty Trump government type retribution, so does his wealth. so he's gonna kiss the ring every time

Bezos has sold enough stock and is diversified enough that Amazon's stock price is not the determining factor in how he lives his life.....He already has hit the infinite money glitch.
His divorced wife has given away nearly 20 billion dollars and is richer NOW than when she started.....
Bezos has the money to stand up to Trump.....Amazon at this point is a foundational American tech company.
Trump fukking with them would not play well for him at all.

The decision is largely irrelevant given that people will see higher prices regardless.
