Dame Launches 'Trump Tariff' Surcharge

LOS ANGELES — Sexual wellness brand Dame has introduced a "Trump Tariff" surcharge as a line item for vibrator purchases.

The move is in response to President Trump’s recent tariff increase on Chinese imports.

“Last week, Trump unveiled an additional 34% tariff on all Chinese goods imported into the U.S.,” said a rep. “Dame responded to Trump’s tariffs with a cheeky new line item at checkout on their website — choosing to be upfront with its customers instead of quietly raising prices.”

Added Dame CEO Al Fine, “Due to these added tariffs, sadly, the cost of our products will rise at a time when states are actively trying to ban the sale of vibrators in grocery stores [and pharmacies].”
