We are now in a war position with a Hilter. This is the approach to an invasion if he had toilet paper and ammo.
As an intellectual exercise, we should be prepared for 300% tariffs on toilet paper. Had the suppliers learned anything, they would have this in their contracts, a modified 'force majeure'.
Upon the announcement of anything over 10%, all supply contracts to the US are halted. All trucks stopped. The purpose of a huge tariff is an act of war. It is meant to slow down or stop the flow of goods. The halt is to adjust for the change in demand. The US may decide to give up all paper products.
On the US side, they must immediately put the tariff to consumer to stop hoarding. Tumpy hates that. After all the gasoline price at the pumps goes up instantly with the world price. We must assume a 'just in time' flow, and no storage. The alternative is to put a limit on Costco customers, which is commie toilet paper rationing.
To stop the stupid US charge of 'profiteering', all the consumer tariff payments must go into escrow until things have settled. You must get the demand sorted out.
There will be a huge demand for Chinese washing toilets, time to double those tariffs.
More sailors with itchy bums will jump off the ship.
ps there is no constraint that the tariffs don't go to infinity. The only person at tumpy's ear is nibbling it.
