Overview
After successfully pressuring Colombia into accepting deportees via tariff threats, President Trump is now poised to impose similar tariffs on Canada and Mexico. Economists warn that these tariffs could lead to elevated inflation and economic slowdowns, as Canada and Mexico account for nearly 30% of all U.S. imports.

Despite the potential backlash, Trump believes tariffs will enforce respect from other nations while combating illegal immigration.
