Reshaping global economic landscape?

Trump argues that the current global trade system exploits the US, and believes these aggressive measures will revive domestic industries and bring back jobs to America’s heartland.
However, the move has sparked global concern. Countries like China have responded with retaliatory tariffs, triggering stock market selloffs and heightening fears of a global recession.
While Trump remains confident that his policies will spark an economic boom, critics warn they may instead ignite a damaging global trade war.
