The issue is that while an item may be assembled in the US, how much of it needs to be imported in the first place. Aluminium, electronics, etc may be imported into the US first so you will be paying extra for those parts due to the tariffs increasing costs. Many things are going to increase here due to that, even if we don't have tariffs on the US.
