So, now they get shipped back and forth across the Pacific...twice? Wow. So much "winning".

I mean, if you compare a ton of tropical wood or fruit to a ton of microchips, the value of the latter is so much better, that this is not such a problem. There will still be some logistical overhead even if much of the processes will happen in the USA. These are supply chains more complex than anything in our daily lives.

I think it could pressure the us to produce more things fully domestically
