Hopefully this is all over by the time next gen consoles come out....Trump isn't going to want this lasting while he is up for re-election...

why not? if he can't get a real war going an economic war is his best chance to present himself as tough and manly

I don't think economic wars spur the same type of "FREEDOM!" response as having to pay more for the stuff you want.

Of course, he could do it anyway, would just be dumb. And would probably result in him losing the election, so we'd just have to wait till like Feb 2021 to get all the new toys.
