If Trump's new threat of massive 100% tariffs on chips from Taiwan comes true an RTX 5090 for $2,000 will seem cheap (www.pcgamer.com)

I'm in agreement. I think where our opinions differ is that I'm not worried about consumer electronics in this new economic and political reality. And the reason I'm not worried is that I know it's fucked.

We will not see the type of economy that we have been used to for quite some time. And if the last democrat admin is anything to consider, then I doubt these insane new regulations will be repealed even if the Republicans lost power in 4 years.

I think there are much greater concerns than consumer electronics and now is the time to plan for them.
