Trump's Tariff Claims Debunked by Experts

Economists and analysts argue that Trump's tariff policies misrepresent how tariffs work and their economic impact.

Donald Trump continues to claim that tariffs are paid by foreign countries, despite evidence showing U.S. consumers and businesses bear the cost.
Tariffs are taxes on imported goods that often lead to higher prices for American consumers, contrary to Trump's assertions.
Historical and recent data suggest that tariffs do not protect domestic industries as effectively as Trump claims.
Economists argue that tariffs have not significantly reduced the U.S. trade deficit or boosted the overall economy.
Experts warn that Trump's reliance on tariffs as a fiscal remedy is misleading and economically harmful.
