**Trump’s Tariffs: Economic Shield or Trade War?**

Former President Donald Trump’s tariffs on China and other trading partners were a defining feature of his economic policy. Aimed at protecting U.S. industries, these tariffs targeted steel, aluminum, and billions in Chinese goods. Supporters argue they boosted domestic manufacturing and forced fairer trade deals. Critics warn they sparked inflation, hurt farmers, and escalated trade tensions.

Now, as Trump campaigns for re-election, he proposes even steeper tariffs—up to **60% on Chinese imports** and **10% across the board**. Economists debate the impact: Will they revive U.S. jobs or trigger higher costs and retaliation? With global trade at a crossroads, the #TrumpTariffs debate heats up.
