US President Donald Trump has been hyping up what he called a ‘Liberation Day’ ever since he announced that he would run for the US Presidency for the third time after losing his previous bid to former President Joe Biden in 2020. He promised that his tariffs would ‘bring wealth and prosperity back’ to the United States, boosting the economy by creating jobs and expanding manufacturing capabilities. Trump and his administration rejected criticism from the opposition who called the tariffs ‘a tax on Americans’, insisting instead that they would put more money in people’s pockets. For the past month and a half, other countries waited for April 2, the date Trump set to unveil his tariff plans, as the world anticipated how his vision would unfold. Now, with the plans revealed yesterday at the ‘Make America Wealthy Again’ event in the White House Rose Garden, we bring you full coverage of Trump’s proposed tariffs and the developments leading up to this moment.
