In 2025, President Trump introduced a 10% baseline tariff on all imports from every country, effective April 5, as part of his "reciprocal trade" agenda. The policy aims to reduce trade deficits and boost U.S. manufacturing, but critics warn it could increase household costs and trigger retaliatory trade wars worldwide.

The government should impose a tariff match. If a country is imposing a 20% on the U.S., the U.S. tariff to that country should be 20%.
@B58MPKJ6 days6D
Depends on the shippment of the country, do they ship often? Are they a necessity? Can they negotiate should all be valid questions before imposing
@B584MFJ7 days7D
No, it's just the government taking more money from everyone. Reason because it is just government taking 10% more from everyone. We will just pay 10% more on all goods and in turn paying more in taxes.
@B5767CL1wk1W
Yes and No, We should definitely be more strict with other trading in countries but not to the extreme
@B56WV2W1wk1W
Yes, this will allow the country to still be able to obtain profit from exportation of goods and services onto U.S. soil. Consider 10% on exports that are not essential too (essentials limited to: food, water, pharmaceuticals, etc).
@B54QVDB2wks2W
Only put baseline tariffs on countries that have larger tariffs imposed on the United States, if the country does not have larger tariffs imposed on the United States, then a smaller baseline tariff could be imposed.
@B54H5FR2wks2W
if that country has a tariff against us which is around or over 10% than an equal or greater tariff should be levied to secure national interests and negotiate more favorable global US trade
@B54DRR9 2wks2W
Clarity and purpose and scope it is a lazy way of dealing with the problem and displays defensiveness when other more diplomatic options have not been tried
