During his presidency, Donald Trump implemented a series of tariffs as part of his "America First" trade policy, primarily targeting China, the European Union, Canada, and Mexico. These tariffs aimed to reduce the U.S. trade deficit, protect American manufacturing, and pressure trading partners into more favorable agreements. A notable example includes the tariffs on Chinese goods, which sparked a trade war that led to retaliatory tariffs affecting American farmers and businesses. While supporters argued that the tariffs protected U.S. industries, critics claimed they raised consumer prices and disrupted global trade relations.
