A few topics I didn't get to yesterday...
Of course customers want their (our) money back but getting that done would probably be a logistical nightmare. (But maybe not...maybe the companies know just how much they charged and to whom and maybe they could easily refund it. I'd like to know.)
FedEx and UPS charged fees for collecting tariffs. Now, customers want that money back.

I'm really sick of Trump everything. Watches, shoes, buildings where he has licensed his name but has no ownership, the Trump-Kennedy Center, and now this. The man's narcissism knows no limits and he's surrounded by enablers.
.
I get it: Trump has some dictatorial tendencies that I don’t like either. That said, with the important exception of trying to continue to impose tariffs, he has abided by Supreme Court decisions, which is not what a king would do. More importantly, the people to be afraid of are the bureaucrats and the deputy undersecretaries of whatever, not the president.
