Trump Tariffs – A Short Note

During his presidency (2017–2021), Donald Trump implemented a series of tariffs as part of his "America First" trade policy. These tariffs primarily targeted China, the European Union, Canada, and Mexico. The most notable were the tariffs on Chinese goods—initially 10% and later raised to 25%—on hundreds of billions of dollars' worth of imports, aiming to address trade imbalances and alleged unfair practices like intellectual property theft.

Trump also imposed tariffs on steel (25%) and aluminum (10%) from many countries, citing national security concerns. These actions triggered retaliatory tariffs, affecting American exports, especially in agriculture.#TrumpTariffs $BTC
