#TrumpTariffs Trump's Tariffs
The tariffs imposed by Donald Trump aimed to protect American industry, reduce trade deficits, and combat trade practices considered unfair, especially from China. These measures, part of the 'America First' policy, resulted in trade wars with retaliations from other countries, impacting global supply chains.

Globally, the tariffs contributed to a slowdown in trade and increased economic uncertainty. Although controversial, they represented a significant shift in American trade policy.
