#TrumpTariffs

**Trump tariffs** refer to the trade policies introduced by former U.S. President Donald Trump, especially during his time in office from 2017 to 2021. These tariffs were taxes placed on imported goods, mainly from China, in an effort to protect American industries and reduce the U.S. trade deficit. Trump argued that countries like China were taking unfair advantage of U.S. markets. The tariffs affected goods such as steel, aluminum, electronics, and more. While some American businesses benefited, others faced higher costs. The tariffs led to tensions between the U.S. and trading partners, sparking a trade war that impacted global markets.
