  • If Trump gets elected

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Fri Nov 1 21:34:51 2024
    If Trump gets elected, get your tech buying done asap

    60% tariffs on all Chinese goods are going to slam the IT sector

    Tariffs have become a major issue in the current US election, with
    former president Donald Trump claiming his plans to put a 10-20
    percent tax on imports, rising to 60 percent with China, would fill
    government coffers for tax cuts and make American manufacturing great
    again. His rival Kamala Harris called the plans a 'sales tax on the
    American people.'

    sales tax

    Correct....but US customers will experience this in many products,
    including OEM vehicles.

    Well, if the orange moron is elected, at least that's one thing to look
    forward to. That tax will help my second hand business, LOL. I'm
    concerned at how many Trump signs I see in Ohio. My guess is due to
    Vance, he'll swing Ohio.

    Seniors and females may decide in Ohio and nationwide.

    2 million have voted so far in Ohio, and considering what has
    transpired with the abortion issue (six-week abortion ban has been
    ruled unconstitutional), I'd say many females are ticked off,
