Donald Trump has announced a new tariff plan, starting with 25 percent tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada, and even higher tariffs on China. This move is expected to impact American consumers directly. Former Republican strategist Ana Navarro criticized the plan, stating it could lead to retaliatory tariffs from these countries. She emphasized that the costs of tariffs will ultimately fall on U.S. consumers, affecting prices on everyday goods. In contrast, former Trump official Mike Dubke supported the tariffs, calling them a strong message. He believes the American public is ready for this approach, while Navarro warned that many conservatives oppose such tariffs due to existing free trade agreements.
