#TrumpTariffs Trump's tariff measures (#TrumpTariffs) aim to protect the domestic industry, but they should be applied with much more caution. Various reports warn that these tariffs are generating more uncertainty, inflation, and lower economic growth both in the U.S. and globally. Furthermore, the most vulnerable sectors and low-income families are the most affected, as rising prices erode their purchasing power. While trade protection can be useful in certain cases, such an aggressive and widespread policy can trigger retaliation, affect employment, and weaken the global economy.
