On the plus side, books are still locked in at 7% by congressional law, which can't be overridden by these orders, so TTRPG books will be unchanged(unless Hasbro thinks they can throw some cost there to offset other lines). Boxsets with books though count as games, so those will still get hit.

I'm just waiting for him to drop outright sanctions on China (and while everyone's distracted, lift them on Russia)

90 day "pause" on everyone but China, who goes up to 125%. We'll see if it stays a pause, but there's going to be a lot of warehouses getting crammed to the brim in the next three months. Also frankly surprised he hasn't just called for a halt entirely on all shipping to/from China - it seems...
