#TrumpTariffs 🚨
Donald Trump’s trade moves have taken a blockbuster turn. He’s rolling out fresh “Liberation Day” tariffs—rocketing to a blistering 55% on Chinese imports, combining new levies on rare-earth minerals and fentanyl‑precursors with existing duties. Meanwhile, U.S. steel and aluminum are slammed with a 50% Section‑232 tariff effective June 4. Legal fireworks accompany the policy: a federal appeals court has green‑lit these sweeping duties to remain in force, even as their constitutionality heads back to court by July 31.
Trump hails it as economic liberation—a triumphant stand for U.S. sovereignty. Critics warn of soaring consumer prices, rattled supply chains, and market chaos. Yet Trump remains undeterred, promising swift, unilateral rate-setting if talks falter—warning nations: take it or face the sledgehammer.
The drama of global trade just hit prime time.
