Donald Trump's trade wars with countries like China, Mexico, and Canada pose serious risks to the American economy, with experts warning of permanent damage to international relationships. While tariffs are often seen as a solution, they tend to backfire and hurt domestic consumers and industries more than they help. Despite potential short-term gains, the lasting repercussions of strained partnerships could jeopardize U.S. economic prospects for generations. Seeking off-ramps is crucial to mitigate these risks, but implementing effective solutions requires commitment from leaders.
Tariffs are nearly always self-defeating and always harm the country they are aimed to protect. Domestic consumers and customers pay the cost every time.
While Trump may achieve some goals from trade wars, lasting damage will occur to relationships with major trading partners, hindering long-term U.S. economic prospects.
