Hit Me Baby One More Time...With These Tariffs?

Okay y'all so I heard some buzz about these 'TACO trades' and I was like is this about my love for tacos? Because seriously give me a break leave Britney (and her love for Mexican food) alone! But no apparently it's about President Trump and his tariff rollercoaster. Like seriously is he trying to drive us all crazy? Stronger than yesterday? More like stressed than ever!

Toxic Trade Policies? Gimme More...Clarity!

This AlixPartners survey thingy says retail peeps are kinda sorta maybe feeling a little optimistic that Trump will chill with the crazy tariffs after this 90 day 'pause' thing. They're thinking Mexico and Vietnam might catch a break? I’m thinking… does this mean cheaper shoes? I need answers people! I mean work ***** (I’m kidding… mostly).

Oops!...I Think He's Making a Deal

Apparently China and the U.S. are talking which is like a good thing right? And some court said Trump didn't have the power to slap on those April 2 tariffs (though it's on hold while they figure it out). So retail bigwigs are thinking maybe just maybe everything's gonna be okay. It's like a game I’m not a girl not yet a woman… but I’m definitely paying attention to the drama! This Lapinsky person is quoted. I am not sure who she is but she has some interesting points.

Everytime: Will He Chicken Out or Not?

Apparently there's this 'TACO trade' thing – Trump Always Chickens Out. LOL! But Trump says he's not chickening out he's 'negotiating.' Okay Mr. President whatever you say! But maybe he will get away with this baby because I think it’s kind of funny and all. But I am not sure… Sometimes I run sometimes I hide.

Don't Let Me Be The Last to Know...If Tariffs Are Sticking Around!

This Lapinsky lady is still being serious saying that the retailers might be jumping the gun. She's like China has leverage but what about everyone else? Will they get a sweet deal too? Or will they be left screaming and shouting? I need to know! I can’t stand the rain and I can’t stand these crazy tariffs! Give me something… less stressful.

Lucky...If We Can Plan For Anything!

So even though some peeps think tariffs on India might stay at 10% others are bracing for them to go higher. Basically nobody knows what's going on! We're all just trying to survive you know? It's like...you gotta be strong you gotta be tough. And you gotta have a really good accountant! Me against the music? More like me against these tariff policies! Okay bye!
