Americano: are Trump's tariffs really that bad?

Americano: are Trump's tariffs really that bad?

By The Spectator

The Spectator's economics editor Kate Andrews and Social Democratic Party leader William Clouston join Freddy Gray to try and make sense of Donald Trump's decision to impose tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China. He has since threatened the European Union, and has warned the UK. Is this a negotiation tactic or something more? What political philosophy underpins the decision? And what will the impact be?

Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Megan McElroy.
