Since @realDonaldTrump continues to boast that China is paying the tariffs now being redistributed to farmers, here's an thread of the tariffs my small business has paid as a result of Trump's tariffs.

My business pays 100% of these tariffs - China does not pay a single penny.
This was my first bill for the new Trump tariffs effective 9/1, received 9/16.

These were paid 100% by my business- not China as
@realDonaldTrump continues to lie about.

$6,381.96 for *one* shipment.

This shipment was *already on the water* when Trump announced the tariffs.
@realDonaldTrump Another tariff bill received on Sept 13th.

Thankfully the container was cleared just before the September tariffs took effect, so while we got hit on some earlier tariffs, it was not as drastic.

Nonetheless, another $1,371 in #TrumpTariffs paid 100% by my business - not China.
@realDonaldTrump And another tariff bill received Nov 1 that my company had to pay for $2,936.

Not to beat a dead horse, but not one cent of these tariffs is paid by China.

These tariffs are hurting a lot of businesses, and consumers will be paying more because of them. #TrumpTariffs
@realDonaldTrump This past week we got a few more #TrumpTariffs bills, this one on Nov 13th for $4,052.

As Trump gloats about bailing out the farmers he personally hurt with his policies, just remember that it's American businesses that are the ones paying the bill - not China.
@realDonaldTrump Here's yet another bill from Nov 14th, this one for $3,902.

We will try to pass as much of this on to consumers to help pay for the tariffs, but not a single dime will be paid by China.

Gotta love Trump socialism - tax businesses to give to farmers he hurt with #TrumpTariffs.
@realDonaldTrump One more from this week (11/13).

This one is $3,609, bringing the total our small business has paid in #TrumpTariffs to over $22,000 since just the beginning of Sept.

If you think this won't harm businesses as the tariffs eat away at profitability, I have some bad news for you.
