minus-square@collapse_already@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglish7•2 months agoThe price was going to be $499. A 145% tariff makes the price $1222.55. A 100% tariff would double the price and this is more than 100%. Looks like pretty steep inflation fueled by tariffs. I wonder how the Denies Reality Party (DeRPs) will spin it.
