Former President Donald Trump is reportedly considering enacting a universal tariff of 10 per cent if he is returned to the White House in 2025, a move that experts believe could trigger a global trade war.
Mr Trump met last week with a selection of his top economic advisors at his New Jersey golf club, The Washington Post reported on Tuesday. Out of that meeting came a potential economic focus for his ongoing campaign: an aggressively protectionist trade policy the likes of which no president in modern US history has ever enacted.
