The 25% #tariff on cars & car parts that #Trump is talking about goes into effect just after midnight. The #UAW union is a strong supporter of those #tariffs, but auto companies & economists have said they will lead to significantly higher car #prices & could even slow US auto production.
Trump said his tariffs offered an example of his admin “standing up for our great farmers & ranchers.” Reminder: in his first term, he had to bail farmers out after they were hurt by his #TradeWar w/ #China.
