That’s a double edge sword. Keep the US gov from collecting a tariff from you, yes. But you do without and replacing said item with a domestic good still benefits him in terms of tariffs increasing American business. There is no winning here while Trump is in office.

Granted, ceasing discretionary spending at a significant fraction is likely to trigger/deepen a recession.
