Trump says US kids may get ‘2 dolls instead of 30,’ but China will suffer more in a trade war
- President Donald Trump announced a 25% tariff on automobile imports on March 26, effective April 3, aiming to protect U.S. Manufacturing and national security.
- Trump acknowledged the tariffs might reduce product availability in the U.S., using the example that children could have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, while blaming Joe Biden for economic setbacks.
- Following a government report showing U.S. Economic contraction in early 2025, the stock market fell, and analysts warned the tariffs could increase car prices and disrupt the global auto industry.
- Trump insisted China suffers more from the trade war because its factories face operational difficulties, while he assured Americans the tariffs would not trigger a recession.
- Critics, including Heather Boushey and Sen. Jeff Merkley, argued Trump’s policies caused economic slowdown and rising costs within his first 100 days, indicating negative implications for middle-class families.
