President Trump has a message for nations children: prepare to sacrifice for his country.

He was taking questions at the end of one of his marathon cabinet meetings when he finally allowed, his tariff policies and the commercial war that he has proposed with China can soon give rise to some more empty shelves -an in stores. Specifically, toy stores.

“You know, someone said:” Oh, the shelves will be open, “Trump said.” Well, maybe children have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, you know? And maybe the two dolls will cost a couple more dollars than they would normally. “

This, from the billionaire, crypto-vending, which works with the Golf Club, the president of Palm Beach along the fifth avenue with the Golden Office and the Golden Triplex apartment. There he sat down, surrounded by the other billionaires with whom he has filled his cabinet, they tell the children of America that they will have to settle for less toys this year for the greater good.

This Grinchy pronouncement by the president had the courage to be sincere.

Many American toys and retailers have begun to stop their orders as the effects of Trump’s tariffs extend, threatening to grunt supply chains. Everything could have a great impact on this year’s Christmas season, since it has been manufacturing, packaging and sending many products to the United States for months.

Greg Ahearn, executive director of the Toy Association, a group of the American industry that represents 850 toy manufacturers, told The Times that it is now a “frozen supply chain that is putting Christmas.”

“If we do not begin to produce soon,” Ahearn said, “there is a high probbility of a shortage of toys in this holiday season.”

Do you listen to that, children?
