It's ok.. the consumer will ultimately pay that tariff.

Don't worry about it! Some intrepid American entrepreneur will simply begin producing American EVs immediately.

If modern politics has taught us anything, all you need to do is drop-kick the first domino and the Free Market will do exactly what you want it to do every time with zero follow-up. Society is completely linear like that.
