#TrumpTariffs

#TrumpTariffs refers to a series of import taxes imposed by President Donald Trump, mainly between 2018 and 2020, targeting countries like China, Canada, Mexico, and the EU. The goal was to reduce the U.S. trade deficit, protect American industries, and pressure trading partners into renegotiating trade deals. Most notable were tariffs on steel, aluminum, and hundreds of billions in Chinese goods, sparking a trade war with China. Critics argued the tariffs hurt American consumers and farmers through higher prices and retaliatory tariffs. Supporters claimed they defended U.S. jobs and industries. The tariffs significantly impacted global trade relations during Trump's presidency.
