Winning Continues, As Trump Announces New Tariffs | Political News
President Trump took to his Truth Social account on Saturday, and introduced the most recent tariffs being imposed by the U.S.on imports and as he previewed just lately, these got here in the shape of letters to their leaders/representatives.
The letters had been slated to begin going out on Monday, according to the president, during remarks to an impromptu gaggle aboard Air Force One after the Independence Day occasion:
President Trump says “probably 12” letters will exit Monday to completely different international locations informing them as to their new tariffs.

He wrote to Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo that while her nation has helped “secure the border” with the U.S. against illicit drug smuggling, it “is not enough”:
In his letter to Sheinbaum Pardo, Trump cited the movement of fentanyl across the southern border, which was the unique foundation for a 25 % tariff he imposed on Mexican items earlier this 12 months.
“Mexico has been helping me secure the border, BUT, what Mexico has done, is not enough,” the president wrote.
Readers may keep in mind that in Feb., we slapped a 25 % tariff on Mexican merchandise, although some of them had been excluded from tariffs. We’ll have to see if those are a half of this as properly.

We’re still ready to hear what the harm might be for our neighbors to the north, after Trump canceled the negotiations with Canada, as I wrote in late June.
Back to right now. In Pres. Trump’s missive to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, he wrote:
“We have had years to focus on our Trading Relationship with The European Union, and have concluded that we should transfer away from these long-term, giant, and persistent, Trade Deficits, engendered by your Tariff, and Non-Tariff, Policies and Trade Barriers.”
Word of the new levies comes after a slew of them did exit on Monday, including a 25 % tariff on Japan and South Korea.
We have also made a latest commerce deal in July with Vietnam, as my colleague Susie Moore wrote, as properly as earlier ones with the United Kingdom back in May, and China (the latter, on both uncommon minerals and commerce) in June.
GOP Sen. Eric Schmitt of Missouri has some ideas for any naysayers on the impact the tariffs might need on the U.S. economic system:
Remember when they advised you tariffs had been going to destroy the economic system?
Wrong again.
Thanks to President Trump’s America First commerce coverage, our revenues surged to a report $27.2 BILLION in June—producing a finances surplus for the month.
