Summary

Donald Trump pledged to impose a 25% tariff on all products from Mexico and Canada on his first day in office, blaming them for failing to stop illegal drugs and immigration.

He also vowed to add a 10% tariff on Chinese goods until drug trafficking into the U.S. ceases.

Economists warn these tariffs could drive up consumer prices and inflation.

While violent crime has declined in recent years, Trump continues to link trade measures to border security and drug issues, echoing his first-term trade policies and immigration stance.

      That looks like a ludicrously bad shop job. Also, Whirlpool appliance boxes are not printed in color like that.

      And for anyone wondering, practically all of Whirlpool (and all the other “American” brands) refrigerators are made in Mexico. Just saying.
