How shoppers should cope with U.S.-China trade war

As of the latest tally, the new tariffs will mean higher prices on items such as luggage, mattresses, food and cleaning products. The increase is effective on goods shipped starting last Friday.

Still in the works are additional tariffs on sporting goods, camping equipment, shoes, clothing and consumer electronics, including TVs, video game consoles and laptops. "If you were planning a large purchase six weeks from now, you may want to make that purchase today," French said. Still, many Americans don't have that kind of disposable income on hand, he added.

Beto O'Rourke: Our farmers are paying the price for our trade wars'The more time I spend listening in rural communities, the clearer it becomes: China isn't paying the price for this reckless trade war. We are,' writes Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke for CNNOpinion Opinion Democrats are funny. They support tariffs for 60 years until Trump does, then they switch to free trade. Good to know Democrats are engaged in serious policy analyses here and totally not just reacting to Trump haha Opinion The more time he spends in rural communities is still zero I’ll bet. Opinion The people that say Trump has done no wrong, are the same people that would stand by his side if he pronounced to be King of America. In their eyes he could stand before them and rip up the US Constitution, pull a not pad from his pocket and write his own version of it.
