Will solar panels triple in price December 4th?

Seems like this presidential proclamation going into effect on Dec 4 is really going to cause solar prices to shoot up. Since it's a price floor, there's no way to dodge these tariffs.

I thought maybe if Dems took the House and Senate in the midterms they could stop it but it doesn't seem likely since they would need to pass a law to override it.

Some more context: [https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/06/us/politics/trump-tariffs-solar-panels.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/06/us/politics/trump-tariffs-solar-panels.html)

What do you guys think? Is there any way this doesn't go through? How long will we still have inventory in America to buy before prices shoot up?
