President Trump's recently imposed tariffs have baffled economists and are seen as a strategy to upend global economic order rather than an effective economic policy. Dubbed the Mar-a-Lago Accord, this approach—conceived by Trump and key advisers—targets the weakening of the dollar to improve U.S. export competitiveness. Despite considerable economic, social, and political discontent driving these policies, many economists warn against the chaotic methods they entail, which could undermine the foundational economic and political principles that define America's greatness.
President Trump's tariffs are not genuinely aimed at boosting the economy, but rather serve as a strategic opening in a larger plan to reshape global trade.
The Mar-a-Lago Accord, developed by Trump and his advisers, proposes using tariffs to weaken the dollar, thus enhancing U.S. competitiveness in global markets.
There is widespread discontent driving this shift in economic policy, reflecting the need for a revamp of the post-Cold War economic order.
Many economists criticize the slash-and-burn approach of the Mar-a-Lago Accord, suggesting it deviates from America’s core economic and political values.
