Furious Trump hits world with brutal new 10% tariffs – ‘I can destroy the country’ | World | News

US President Donald Trump has furiously imposed 10 percent blanket tariffs on countries all over the globe as he furiously responds to the Supreme Court’s striking down of his economic agenda. He said that he will sign an executive order today to impose a 10 percent global tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, which allows him to apply blanket tariffs for up to five months.

Upset over the Supreme Court’s ruling, Mr Trump said: “Today, I will sign an order to impose a 10pc global tariff under Section 122, over and above our normal tariffs already being charged. And we’re also initiating several section 301, and other investigations to protect our country from unfair trading practices of other countries.”
