In China, many factories are currently at a standstill because they are no longer producing for the US. They are now looking for new markets and products for those potentially new markets. This will certainly mean empty shelves and less choice in the US, and even if it were all resolved politically tomorrow, this situation will take months to resolve.

Yeah, with the supply chain, figure on 25 days to affect the west coast
and another 35 days to the east. 5-10 days of denial, blame, and
finally capitulation from the administration, and another 25-35 days
plus time for China to slow-walk their production up. If they bother to
do so.

It's game over, and we don't know it yet.
