That is why many people i know outside china are buying more china products now to counter that.
Americans will still buy, actually. the people who will be affected are those Americans who buy from china cheaply and rebrand and re sell them with a huge markup. it limits their ability to mark up much.
China should respond with a tariffs system that jumps randomly between 34% to 1000% for US goods every hour. Tell Trump it is all run by AI now, and it takes into account Trump saying thank you in mandarin. Say it is just medicine.
in fact, it is americans that buy cheap china goods and mark them up in price substantially, rebrand to sell to Americans, they lose their profits now. which will be taken by US government instead through tariffs tax.
US lands pretty much came out of WW2 untouched except Pearl Harbour, so US grew rapidly while rest of world has a lot of rebuilding to do.
Warmonger Trump is now replicating that and so repeating history to start WW3. From forcing Ukraine to surrender to russia just like how Czechoslovakia was forced to surrender to nazi Germany and now Trump is pushing every country into protectionism trade wars.
I think some kind of mix approach, example some countries ban some kind of advertising. Advertising medical prescription drugs and treatments is illegal in some countries.
Alternatively companies should pay me to watch their advertisements. Organize events to pay people to watch their advertisement.
With smart glasses AR and AI we should be able to block out all billboard, posters or it could go the opposite way glasses show all kind of adverts.. hmm. We need open source AR smart glasses with adblock.
lol, Trump sounds like putin.
