> products we couldn’t manufacture ourselves even if we wanted to, since the vendor has well-deserved IP protections

That's something I hadn't though about in the context of tariffs with interesting implications.

Does following IP rules mean that any products and technologies that wont manufacturer in the US but holds IP protections become subject to a permanent tariff? Giving countries a permanent 125% advantage over US businesses when using that IP?

What's the plan here?
