Explore what Donald Trump plans to do with billions from tariffs. Will it boost the U.S. economy, pay off debt, or fund new policies? Find out now.
President Donald Trump: As soon as he entered his second term in January 2025, US President Donald Trump terrified the world with a huge price tag. He offered huge prices to Canada, Mexico and China, and the next day he took turns and postponed their implementation. Over the past six months, US President Trump has announced six different prices in several countries, postponing its implementation six times.
Trump’s final announcement states that in some countries, mutual prices should have been held on August 1st. Trump also signed a contract on July 31 for prices of up to 41% x 71 countries, including India’s 25%, but posed for seven days just hours before it took place on August 1. Now, Trump is to win these billions of dollars prices.
Plan to attract citizens
A report claimed that Donald Trump has devised a scheme that would satisfy Americans. On Monday, a news agency reported that when U.S. President Trump announced the 25% American tariff on Indian imports, he said: I can think about passing on some of the tariff to the citizens in the form of dividends. So Donald Trump is planning to attract citizens.
Dividend refers to some portion of the income paid out to shareholders or others; here dividend means that part of the US income from tariffs collected. Yet so far Trump has provided few details about this.
Which country imposes the highest tariff?
The United States has imposed a 15 percent tariff on Britain, 10 percent on Japan and only five percent on South Korea, but announced a 25 percent tariff on India, starting August 7, as well as 35 percent on Canada, 50 percent on Brazil, 39 percent on Switzerland, and 20 percent on Taiwan.
Trump also has signed an executive order about these countries that imposes new import taxes on goods from 69 countries and the European Union beginning August 7. The highest tariff rates will be applied to Syria (41%), Laos, and Myanmar (40%) and Iraq and Serbia (35%).
Negotiations with China are underway
Trump had increased tariffs on China by 145%, but then the talks moved forward and both countries agreed to reduce tariffs on each other. However, no agreement has been reached between the two yet. American officials say that they are considering a good trade agreement. US Treasury Secretary Scott Besant recently gave information about this.
