After winning the presidential election in November, Trump insisted that he would sign an executive order to implement a 25 percent tariff on products imported from Mexico and Canada. These are two of this country’s most significant trading partners.
“On January 20th, as one of my many first Executive Orders, I will sign all necessary documents to charge Mexico and Canada a 25% Tariff on ALL products coming into the United States, and its ridiculous Open Borders,” Trump wrote in a post on his social media site Truth Social.
