    goes into effect 12 days before a midterm election that is already starting to look like a blue tsunami.

    It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em.

      you're assuming media gives a lick about doing more than soundbites. The actual affect will be at best, 2 weeks after this is implemented, but probably 2 months while they actually figure out what legal means they can to infer which packages they can safely claim are foreign, along with actual foreign pharmacies giving 2 shits about todays shipping.
