    I think it’s #6 and the fact that it’s the importers who pay the tariff and optionally pass the cost on to American consumers.

    I think that most of the goods that got imported from the EU, will continue to get imported because either they are:

    • A luxury good that the buyer is willing to pay, regardless of a 15% increase
    • Something that there is no domestic production of and they have no choice
