SE Asian countries don't make solar panels - these are Chinese panels with label switching to hide their origin.

So long as Trump does not put a tariff on pretend law school tuition, you will be fine.

So you agree that Biden was bought and paid for? Or, do you only whine when Trump does it?

Over 3000%? That seems overly excessive.

The irony of defending Chinese solar panels to prevent global warming is the manufacture is both a humanitarian and environmental nightmare.
As a result, a recent study found that solar panels manufactured in China produce 30% more greenhouse gas emissions than if this supply chain was reshored to the U.S. time.com

Not to save the environment.

Perhaps you weren't here Scotts but I was totally against Biden's tariffs on Chinese EVs. I said let China build cheap EVs and sell as many here as Americans want to buy; the more the better. Our real most dangerous threat doesn't come from China or any other nation; it comes from climate change though I do know that Florida's lunatic governor has decided those two words may not appear in any state documents but hey!, he also wants to rewrite history and leave out any parts that make white people, in our past, look bad; much like Donald Trump in that regard!
