Should we also boycott companies that basically do what Trump wants by making other nations pay the US tariffs? E.g. in the link you can read about Sony (Japan) and Xbox (Microsoft - US). I know Microsoft is already American, but it is another major manufacturer that is hiking prices globally.

Those are so far few companies, but I read that some clothing brands and even food markets are discussing about this option.

What do you think?

As a consumer itโ€™s becomes an easy choice for me though. Iโ€™ll choose the company not hurting other economies. Instead of my dollar going to Sony, it goes to a Samsung. If more people do this, Sonys prices will quickly decrease.

But I agree with on the rest of your statement.
