Tariffs Cost US on Monday announced a holiday campaign highlighting how President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs are driving up the prices of food, gifts, and more for American families and businesses during the busiest shopping season of the year. The campaign also features a 30-second video showing a woman checking out and reacting to the high price of each item, with clips of Trump's actual remarks about his import taxes playing in the background. As of November 17, a basket of 11 Thanksgiving staples—including a 10-pound frozen turkey, 10 Russet potatoes, a box of stuffing, and cans of corn, green beans, and cranberry sauce—cost $58.81, or 4.1% more than last year, according to Datasembly, a market research company that surveys weekly prices at 150,000 US stores.
