      The corporations who ‘paid it’. Not the people who paid the increased price but the companies who paid the tariff. So hundreds of companies are about to get a massive influx of money, once again courtesy of the American taxpayers.

      Whoever paid the customs duty. Importers, wholesalers, etc. They may have language in their contracts which requires price easing, rebates, or even pay packs to their customers in an event like this. Those commercial sellers are unlikely to pass the refund any further (if they get any money at all).
