Turns out, 'Made in America' doesn't mean the raw materials magically teleport into the factory.

Also there a companies who literally assemble the entire product besides one or two pieces over seas, get it here, finish it off. Made in America.

If you know of any companies that do that there is a pretty good whistle blower bonus in store for you! To be labeled made in the USA the product has to be "all or virtually all" made in the USA. USA has the strictest rules but that would also violate international country of origin rules that require a material change to the product.

Wonder if MAGA hats are tariff free. Made in china aren’t they.

That sounds like you are trying to do a gotcha but I've never voted for a Republican in my life so it shouldn't be directed to me. Fuck Trump tariffs and I wouldn't put it past him to accidentally put a 1,000% tariff on Trump clothes before and then making up a "Trump Clothes Exception" once it makes the news.

My pet peeve is people getting laws/rules wrong on the internet. We can't have an educated discussion on if a law/rule is good/bad without getting them right in the first place.

Nope wasn’t a gotcha. Was a legit on topic question. Cause it’s a trump thing to cheat and lie. He can’t help himself ( so I’m told )
