As President Donald Trump’s much-vaunted “Liberation Day” approaches, in which he will impose reciprocal tariffs on U.S. trading partners and a 25 percent tax on imported cars, Americans believe he is focused too much on his trade war and not enough on lowering prices.
The latest CBS News/YouGov poll, conducted on March 27-28, shows that 64 percent of respondents believe the Trump administration is not focusing enough on lowering prices, as promised in the 2024 campaign, while 55 percent believe there is too much of a focus on implementing tariffs on imports.
