President Trump’s tariff war is facing pressure from some of his closest advisers and supporters to end the crusade that has disrupted the world economy.
Notable figures like Ben Shapiro, Rich Lowry, Ben Domenech, and the Wall Street Journal editorial page, as well as prominent donors like Ken Langone, have criticized the tariffs. Langone referred to the 46 percent levy on Vietnam as “bull****,” expressing concerns about a potential trade war.
Other influential figures, including Bill Ackman and Jamie Dimon, have voiced negative predictions about the impact of the tariffs on the country’s economy.
Elon Musk, who had initially privately advised against high tariffs, is now publicly advocating for a zero-tariff situation between Europe and North America, criticizing the tariff decisions made by the administration.
Amidst the ongoing disputes, tensions, and tariff hikes, conflicts with allies like Israel and adversaries like China continue to escalate, creating uncertainty and volatility in the markets.
Media reports and misinterpretations have further exacerbated market volatility, leading to confusion and incorrect market reactions.
Despite calls for negotiation and settlements, President Trump seems adamant about continuing his tariff strategy, which has been a longstanding part of his policy approach.
