#TrumpTariffs introduced during his presidency, were a key component of his "America First" agenda. Targeting imports from countries like China, the EU, and Canada, these duties aimed to reduce the U.S. trade deficit, boost domestic manufacturing, and address alleged unfair trade practices. Key industries impacted included steel, aluminum, and technology. While proponents argued the tariffs protected American jobs and industries, critics claimed they increased costs for consumers and businesses, hurt U.S. exporters through retaliatory tariffs, and strained global trade relations. Economists remain divided on their long-term impact, with some citing short-term gains but warning of potential global economic fallout.
