The White House slammed Amazon for considering a plan to show tariff costs on products, calling it a political attack against President Trump. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt blasted the idea as a “hostile act” targeting Trump’s tough trade policies with China. She questioned why Amazon didn’t highlight price hikes during Biden’s inflation crisis instead of going after Trump’s pro-America tariffs.
Amazon quickly denied plans to list tariffs but admitted its Haul store briefly explored the idea. The ultra-low-cost section competes with Chinese companies like Temu and Shein, which already include tariff fees in prices. Critics argue Amazon’s potential move aimed to scare shoppers by exaggerating Trump’s import taxes while ignoring Biden’s economic failures.
Trump’s tariffs on Chinese goods protect American workers from unfair competition. The 145% charges force Beijing to play by the rules instead of cheating our businesses. Leavitt pointed out Amazon partners with Chinese propaganda outlets, raising questions about whose side they’re really on.
American companies typically absorb tariff costs or spread them slowly. Highlighting fees at checkout would’ve created unnecessary panic. This smells like a coordinated effort to turn voters against Trump’s America First agenda before the election.
The Biden administration left prices soaring for years, but suddenly Amazon pretends to care about transparency? Leavitt nailed it – this was pure politics. Conservatives see through the fake outrage from corporations scared of losing their cheap Chinese labor.
Trump’s temporary 10% tariff rate for most countries shows he’s flexible while keeping pressure on China. Real leaders put American jobs first, even if coastal elites and globalist CEOs throw tantrums. Hardworking families deserve fair trade, not backroom deals.
Amazon’s retreat proves the power of Trump’s policies. When patriots speak up, woke corporations back down. This fight isn’t about prices – it’s about protecting our sovereignty from foreign rivals and their apologists.
President Trump won’t let lobbyists or Chinese puppets dictate trade rules. His tariffs rebuild our industries while exposing those who profit from America’s decline. The choice is clear: stand with Trump’s vision or side with Beijing’s enablers.
