#TrumpTariffs

The term #TrumpTariffs TrumpTariffs refers to the trade policy pursued by former U.S. President **Donald Trump**, which focused on imposing numerous tariffs on imports with the aim of protecting domestic industry and boosting American jobs. These tariff measures attracted wide global attention, affecting many of the United States' trading partners, especially **China**, which experienced a prolonged trade war with Washington.

During his presidency (2017-2021), Trump imposed tariffs of up to **25%** on products such as steel and aluminum, as well as Chinese technological and industrial goods. He claimed that these steps would reduce the U.S. trade deficit, but critics warned of their negative repercussions on the global economy, rising consumer prices, and disruptions in supply chains.

Opinions were divided on this policy: its supporters praised it for emphasizing "America First," while analysts saw it as leading to diplomatic tensions and a decline in international economic cooperation. Despite the end of Trump's term, the effects of these tariffs remain a topic of discussion, especially as the Biden administration continues to evaluate some of them. The #TrumpTariffs represents a prominent example of modern trade protectionism and its impact on economic globalization.
