Then do it, but stop trying to tell other companies what to do. If you don't want YOUR COMPANY to work in China, then don't. The second you try and get the government involved to stop other companies, that's a problem.
You still didn't answer the question, you dodged. Do you support Trump's tariffs. You can literally answer it with one word. You dodged. That's like if you asked me if I like ice cream, and I say, "I don't think ice cream will solve the deficit."
Try again.

I'm sure you know you got it a little out of order. To remain somewhat on topic, it's a bit scary how little changing the lyrics would need to be a song about Trump's life, "dad, get me out of this" is already perfect.

The "More than a Dollar Store Due to Tariffs" name must not have sounded good in meetings.Don’t expect everything to cost a dollar at dollar stores anymore.
Reuters reports the Dollar Tree and Dollar General are both warning customers that prices will go up for U.S. shoppers due to rising tariffs in President Donald Trump’s trade war with China. Dollar General executives said the retailer was working with vendors to “mitigate the impact,” but said items will likely cost more in the future.
“Even with these efforts, we believe our shoppers will be facing higher prices as 2019 progress,” Dollar General Chief Financial Officer John Garratt told analysts on a post-earnings call Thursday.
"We expect that it will be impactful to both our business and especially to consumers in general,” Dollar Tree president and CEO Gary Philbin said in a statement.
According to Business Insider, Dollar Tree has already begun quietly testing a “Dollar Tree Plus!” collection of products that cost more than $1 at some stores this month. The company, the last major dollar-store chain to keep all prices at $1 or less, said it would expand the higher prices to more than 100 stores soon.
“With its ‘Everything’s a Dollar’ model, Dollar Tree has remained one of the most unique, differentiated and defensible brand concepts in all of value retail. However, we have always been a ‘test-and-learn’ organization that is committed to evaluating all opportunities to deliver great value for our customers while driving long-term value creation,” Philbin said in the company’s earnings release.
Fearing concerns about customer backlash, Forbes reports dollar stares are coming up with new initiatives to drive more traffic, including a Dollar General partnership with Western Union for customers to transfer money, and adding alcohol to 1,000 of Dollar Tree’s Family Dollar stores.
Reuters reports both companies reported strong quarterly sales Thursday, sending shares up about 6 percent, but executives for both companies said the cost of tariffs will likely be shifted to consumers. Other companies, including Walmart, Coca-Cola, Best Buy, Procter & Gamble, Ford, Harley-Davidson, Macy’s and the Gap, have similarly said prices will go up if tariffs continue.
Trump escalated the trade war this month by increasing duties on $200 billion of Chinese imports from 10% to 25%, claiming China backtracked on commitments it made in earlier negotiations. China retaliated by raising tariffs on $60 billion of U.S. products, including batteries, spinach and coffee.
Dollar General has more than 15,000 locations in 44 states, while Dollar Tree operates more than 7,100 stores nationwide. Both have stores throughout CNY and Upstate New York.

Office of the Inspector General tells DHS to resolve the "dangerous" (not paraphrasing, that's an actual exact word they used) overcrowding in Trump's concentration camps.
This is, of course, above and beyond the children who were put in concentration camps until they died.A cell with a maximum capacity of 12 held 76 detainees.
A cell with a maximum capacity of 8 held 41 detainees.
A cell with a maximum capacity of 35 held 155 detainees.
Per Border Patrol staff, the total number of detainees on site was approximately 900 as of May 8. The facility’s maximum capacity is 125 detainees.
According to Border Patrol’s logs, there were 756 detainees on site as of May 7. 502 detainees (66%) had been held at PDT for more than 72 hours, with 33 detainees (4&) held there for more than 2 weeks.

You think that’s scary? Try Lenard Cohen’s Future... he died November 7th 2016... So many lines relevant to OP... “stuff if it up the hole in your culture”... “give me back the Berlin Wall”... “Won't be nothing... nothing you can measure anymore”... “The blizzard, the blizzard of the world... has crossed the threshold”... shit... I might as well quote the whole song... I’m pretty sure this is far closer to Trump, than any Nostradamus prediction people rationalized as seeing the future...

Not just Dollar Store. Also Costco, which is a legit good store with well-paid employees.

The man that doesn't understand grocery stores also doesn't understand basic food groups, why is that not surprising? Congrats @DocSavageFan, you voted for this idiocy.
Was that what this was about? I thought it was because China was a currency manipulator, which Trump still hasn't labeled them as.
