#TrumpTariffs

Trump's tariff decisions were part of his policies to protect the American economy, particularly domestic industry. He began in 2018 by imposing duties on aluminum and steel imports from several countries, especially China, with the aim of reducing the trade deficit. This move sparked international reactions and led to trade wars, particularly with China, which responded with counter-tariffs. Although the goal was to strengthen the American economy, some sectors were harmed due to rising raw material prices, which ultimately affected the American consumer.
