Trump's tariffs would reorder trade flows, raise costs, draw...

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : Trump, who is in a neck-and-neck race for the White House against Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, has called tariffs "the most beautiful word in the world" and argued that his plans would rebuild the U.S. manufacturing base, grow U.S. jobs and incomes and earn trillions of dollars in federal revenues over 10 years.
58% : Yale University's Budget Lab estimates that the total reduction in annual household income under 10% global and 60% China tariffs would be $2,576 including the impact of retaliation, but could reach up to $7,600 if Trump makes good on comments in which he said he could impose a 20% global tariff and 200% levy on some goods from Mexico, including autos.
40% : Neither track would require approval by the U.S. Congress, and Trump could also invoke the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.
39% : "The approach Trump is taking, I think would totally destroy that system," said Maurice Obstfeld, an economics professor emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley who served as the International Monetary Fund's chief economist from 2015 to 2018.
