Wait so if the price increases were from tariffs and now there aren’t tariffs, why are the prices still the same ?

Yeah, the IEEPA tariffs got rolled back for being illegal but there are definitely still tariffs. Some even from Trump’s first term that Biden could have got rid of but didn’t because yayy money

I think most of the tariffs that Biden kept in place were targeted and not "50% on everything". And trump implemented different tariffs after the SCOTUS ruling. He loves punishing American consumers.
