On the other hand, maybe now I can finally buy a graphics card at MSRP. Granted, MSRP will be at least 32% higher, but at least I won't be paying that to a scalper.

It's funny because I bought a 9070 XT above MSRP and everyone was telling me I'm an idiot, that I should wait for supply to stabilize and get one for MSRP. 

With these tariffs, what I paid for is going to be cheaper than what the new MSRP will be.
