What’s wild is that they can’t even plan for this. If they’d had 5 years of lead time maybe they could have transitioned to an American-made alternative. Maybe your company could have opened an American manufacturing plant or something.
The way things are now, the tariff is likely to change between the time they place the order with you and the time the item arrives. If they could somehow delay delivery for another week, maybe they could avoid being charged the tariff. Or, maybe the tariff will double.
Even if tariffs were a good idea (and for the most part, they’re not), the chaotic vibes-based way they’re being implemented is so incredibly destructive.
