Continued thread
Through his first 2 months in office, #Trump has raised tariffs on ~$800B in imports from #China, #Mexico & #Canada…. These #tariffs have sent the stock market careening & raised the risks of a #US #recession, while inviting retaliation against domestic industries by #trade partners.
Despite the blowback, snr Trump advisers are now publicly pledging to create a new tariff regime that would impose new duties on trade w/most countries that trade w/the US.
