That's the short term impact.
On the long term, both side might get stronger by becoming more independent

This is assuming you can survive the short term impact, that impact would be no joke.
The thing is you probably could shop around and buy things made elsewhere but:
1) Chinese made things are convenient. 2) Chinese made goods are competitively priced. 3) Chinese made goods are readily available. 4) China makes other things too, such as materials, medical supplies, vaccines...
Probably 98% of the items in your house come from China either directly all indirectly.
