Trump’s tariff war with China will hit TVs, dishwashers, toys, lithium batteries, iPhones — even Silly Putty

So? Dishwashers are currently made in So Korea and America. Samsung is in process of build a huge plant here in America. Besides the items mentioned are hardly reg purchases. How often would you purchase a TV, dishwasher, cell phones?

I think the idea is this - building a dishwasher uses steel and aluminium. Tariffs make these more expensive so it now costs more to build a dishwasher in the USA.
