For now. Once people start experiencing Great Depression level poverty that will change. Pre-tariff inventories are running out and food and healthcare costs are skyrocketing.

And Trump and Friends are too stupid to realize that fast tracking economic collapse before you've successfully cemented your authoritarian rule means that it's easier for a revolution to happen.
