Commerce Secretary Lutnick says tariff exemptions for electronics are only temporary

Lutnick said "semiconductor tariffs" will likely come in "a month or two."

You put your tariff in
You put your tariff out
You put your tariff in
And you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey and you turn around
That's what it's all about!

The stable geniuses in the White House don't realize doing this kind of waffling is even worse for the economy in the long run, than simply slapping on a fixed tariff permanently.

said that a few days ago, this kind of up and down means that even if trump got rid of all tariffs tomorrow, it will take time for peoples trust to come back, could take all 4 years depending on how long this goes.

Trump Claims ‘There Was No Tariff Exception’ In Fiery Social Media Post: ‘NOBODY is Getting Off the Hook!’

“There was no Tariff ‘exception’ announced on Friday. These products are subject to the existing 20% Fentanyl Tariffs, and they are just moving to a different Tariff ‘bucket.’ The Fake News knows this, but refuses to report it.”

Here, this will explain it more better:
