Top Democrats have slammed Donald Trump’s plans to impose serious tariffs on the US’s neighbors and allies, warning that they will hit working families and small businesses hard, even as the president said any pain they suffered would be “worth the price”.
Chuck Schumer, the minority leader in the US Senate, led the charge by saying the president’s threatened tariffs would likely “hit Americans in their wallets”. “It would be nice if Donald Trump could start focusing on getting the prices down instead of making them go up.”
