#TrumpTariffs President Trump's tariffs were a key part of his "America First" economic policy. Imposed mainly on China, these tariffs aimed to reduce the U.S. trade deficit, revive American manufacturing, and pressure foreign nations into fairer trade practices. While they generated billions in revenue, critics argue they hurt U.S. consumers and farmers by raising import costs. Supporters claim the tariffs protected domestic industries and addressed long-standing trade imbalances. The trade war with China escalated tensions and led to retaliatory tariffs. Overall, Trump's tariff policy sparked global debate on the effectiveness and consequences of protectionism in modern global trade relations.
