If you have an old enough circuit breaker, you can stick certain coins in it — a penny in the United States — until you can get to the hardware store and buy a proper fuse. It might burn your house down not really if you don’t do it a lot.

Unfortunately, there will be more soon.
Businesses in the US will soon face the fact that goods they ordered from Taiwan cost 1.3 times more on arrival, while goods from Vietnam cost 1.6 times more. They can either try to negotiate with sellers for return of goods (which sellers won't accept, since they did nothing wrong) or curse Trump and pay.
If immediate relief isn't in sight, the cost (and predicted future cost) will be passed to consumers. As a result, consumers won't be able to purchase. Sales volumes will drop and the economy will cool. Less workers will be needed, so there will be layoffs. Etc.

This will happen both ways. Once agreements to buy are over, prices of American material exports will collapse within the US. The USDA says 40-45% of rice is grown for export. Americans are going to eat a lot of rice.
