The impact of Trump's tariffs is multifaceted:

- *Increased costs for consumers*: Rising prices of imported goods, which may lead to higher costs for consumers and decreased demand.

- *Economic uncertainty*: Trump's tariffs have increased economic uncertainty, prompting businesses and households to delay investment and hiring decisions.

- *Global trade relations*: Trump's tariffs have strained trade relations with countries like China, Canada, and Mexico, leading them to take retaliatory actions.

Some potential effects of Trump's tariffs on the U.S. economy include:

- *Reduction in GDP*: Estimates suggest a GDP reduction ranging from 0.4% to 6.3% by 2054.
