Amazon Tariff Transparency Debacle

Amazon reportedly considered and then reconsidered a plan to show “tariff transparency” on items featured on its site. 

I’m Tomi Lahren, more next.

This week rumors swirled that Amazon was planning to add tariff price increase labels next to certain products on the website. 

According to an Amazon spokesperson, marking import charges on certain items was simply an idea that was “considered” for products on the ultra low cost “Amazon Haul” store but was never approved.

Many speculate President Trump may have talked Amazon head honcho Jeff Bezos out of the idea when Trump himself commented “Jeff Bezos is very nice. Terrific. He solved the problem very quickly. He did the right thing.”

Either way. That short-lived idea would have been a rather politically selective one given products never listed the “Bidenflation” markups during the 4 years of disastrous “Bidenomics!” 

I understand why folks are concerned about prices during this tense tariff negotiation period. 

I would just remind you to have faith in the process and faith in the negotiator-in-chief!
