  • If the President goes ahead with 25% taxes on imports from Canada and Mexico, the U.S. automotive trade could feel it.

The article from Time magazine discusses the potential negative impacts of former President Donald Trump's proposed trade policies on the U.S. auto industry. Trump has suggested implementing a 10% tariff on all imports and a 60% tariff specifically on Chinese goods, which could lead to retaliatory measures from other countries. This could significantly affect the auto industry, which relies heavily on global supply chains and international trade. The article highlights concerns from industry leaders like Ford CEO Jim Farley, who warns that such tariffs could disrupt the delicate balance of trade, potentially leading to higher costs for consumers, job losses, and a decrease in competitiveness for American car manufacturers.
