### Introduction to Tariffs Under Trump's Administration

In 2018, former U.S. President Donald Trump launched a series of tariffs on a range of imported goods, particularly from China. These tariffs were part of the "America First" policy aimed at protecting domestic industry and boosting the American economy.

### Main Objectives:

1. **Protecting Domestic Industries**: The tariffs aimed to reduce competition from imported goods, helping American companies to grow.

2. **Reducing the Trade Deficit**: By increasing the cost of imports, the goal was to reduce the trade deficit with countries subjected to the tariffs, especially China.

3. **Trade Negotiations**: The tariffs were used as a tool to pressure countries to make changes in their trade policies.

### Effects:

- **Price Increases**: The tariffs led to higher prices for goods for American consumers.

- **International Reactions**: Countries like China imposed retaliatory tariffs on American goods, escalating the trade dispute.

- **Impact on the Economy**: The tariffs affected supply chains and raised concerns among businesses regarding investments.
