#TrumpTariffs

Former President Donald Trump's proposed tariffs signal a sharp shift toward economic nationalism. He suggests imposing a 10% universal tariff on all imports and higher rates on specific countries like China. Supporters argue this could protect American manufacturing and reduce reliance on foreign goods. Critics warn it may raise consumer prices, strain international relations, and spark trade wars. Economists are divided, but many agree such broad tariffs risk inflation and supply chain disruptions. As the 2024 election approaches, Trump’s tariff stance is reigniting debate on globalization, trade policy, and the balance between economic protectionism and global competitiveness.
