A clip of comedian Dave Chappelle is going viral on X for being a hilarious way to avoid President Donald Trump’s tariffs on China.
As the world reacts to Trump’s America First agenda being implemented in the form of tariffs, some people are making light of the situation and turning to humor. A video making the rounds features a segment from the “MTV Cribs” episode of Chappelle’s Show, where the comedian performs a skit pretending to show off his house. During the mock tour of his place, he brags about having a sweatshop in his basement where he produces all of his merchandise.

Chappelle, who has been attacked over his stance on the transgender agenda, has also joked about Trump’s desire to bring jobs back to the United States from China. He mocked the thought as a “high idea” and said it would make the iPhone “$9000”, said “nobody wants to work that hard.”
