It’s not March 2020, but it sure feels a lot like it for Herschel Wilson.
Wilson started building up a small stockpile of essential goods for his three pets and family of five based in Tacoma, Washington, in August, after Donald Trump had been named the Republican presidential nominee, with an economic agenda that called for higher tariffs. Once Trump won the election, “that changed everything again, and I started to stockpile pretty much everything,” Wilson told CNN. That includes canned goods, bottled water and, yes, lots and lots of rolls of toilet paper.
But concerns about having to potentially pay a lot more for goods in the future due to higher tariffs pushed her and her mom, whom she helps support financially, to stock up on goods after the election.
