Trump’s tariffs were aimed at protecting American industries by taxing imported goods, especially from China. Supporters argue they helped revive U.S. manufacturing and reduced reliance on foreign products. Critics say they raised costs for consumers and strained trade relationships. The tariffs triggered retaliation from other countries, impacting American farmers and exporters. While some industries benefited, overall economic gains were debated. The policy reflected Trump's "America First" agenda, prioritizing national economic interests over global cooperation. Whether successful or not, the tariffs reshaped U.S. trade policy and remain a key issue in discussions about economic nationalism and international trade strategy.
