Tesla warns it could face retaliatory tariffs

That is actually where other countries can hit the US most quickly and substantively without directly exacerbating the tariff tit for tat. If folks simply don't buy US goods and services, it is an even stronger message. We have seen this before under Trump 1.0 and before. When other countries either give up their interest in our goods or purchase the same product from non-US sources, US businesses get hit immediately PLUS in many cases when the "war" clouds lift, find out even if they can get back into that foreign market it is at a lesser volume level for a long time. Whether it is cars, ag products or whiskey, the pain will continue.
