#TrumpTariffs

The #TrumpTariff policy was a major shift in the U.S. trade strategy, imposing heavy duties on imports—especially from China. Trump argued that these tariffs protected American industries and jobs by making foreign goods more expensive. Supporters praised the move for pushing companies to manufacture locally, while critics warned it raised consumer prices and hurt farmers reliant on exports. The trade war with China escalated, leading to retaliatory tariffs. Did the policy work? Some sectors saw growth, but others struggled with higher costs. With Biden reviewing these tariffs, the debate continues. What’s your take—were Trump’s tariffs necessary for economic security, or did they backfire?
