In China, Trump-Shaped Toilet Brushes Become a Symbol of Protest Against Tariffs
In China, there has been a surge in the sales of toilet brushes designed in the likeness of Donald Trump, according to Oddity Central. Mass purchases of such items have become a form of protest against the new American tariffs imposed by the U.S. administration.
According to the portal, Chinese consumers are expressing support for local manufacturers affected by Washington’s trade measures. The production of these brushes and similar products helps enterprises offset losses from declining exports to the U.S.
Trump-shaped toilet brushes have become a popular souvenir symbolizing Chinese dissatisfaction with the actions of the U.S. leadership. These products are mainly sold through online platforms and retail stores focused on the domestic market.
Solidarity actions in support of local businesses are gaining momentum amid escalating trade tensions between the world’s two largest economies. It was earlier reported that, in response to Beijing’s tariffs, the U.S. is considering further raising tariffs on Chinese goods.
Within Chinese society, the topic of economic confrontation with the U.S. is actively discussed, and the mass purchase of such symbolic items has become part of a broader campaign to support national business.
