President-elect Donald Trump has threatened new tariffs on multiple countries as his second term approaches, after making tariffs a signature of his campaign.
Now, Americans may have to actually brace for stagflation — something the nation’s economy hasn’t experienced in over half a century.
Just over a month from now, Trump will have the power to levy tariffs on other nations at the flick of a pen.
And once inaugurated on January 20, he has pledged to immediately impose a 25% tariff on Mexican and Canadian imports and increase tariffs on Chinese goods by an additional 10%.
On the campaign trail, he also promised to levy a 10% to 20% tax on all imports and increase tariffs on Chinese goods by at least 60%.
