Tariffs are paid by the company that imports foreign-made goods to the government. To make up for that expense, they charge the retailer the same amount; and to make up for that expense, the retailer charges the customer the same (or a higher) amount added to the item's price. (at least as I understand it)

If OOP is "100% Trump!", they should be very, extremely happy about paying into THEIR President's pockets.
