President Donald Trump announced his intention to impose tariffs on Canada and Mexico, in addition to doubling the existing 10% universal tariff on imports from China. The tariffs are set to go into effect starting next Tuesday.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump cited the smuggling of illicit drugs, particularly fentanyl, into the United States at what he described as 'unacceptable levels.' He believes that imposing import taxes will compel other countries to take action against drug trafficking.
