Trump telah menjanjikan hari pembebasan tarif. Orang Amerika tidak begitu yakin.

“The president keeps saying ‘trust me, trust me’ — I don’t think folks are buying it,” Warner added.

As Trump’s tariffs come into effect, the world will be watching to see whether his “liberation day” brings the economic benefits he promises, or if it leads to a trade war that could have severe consequences for the US and global economy.

Only time will tell if Trump’s gamble will pay off, or if it will result in the “enormous amount of anxiety” that many fear.

Dia menambahkan bahwa tarif Smoot-Hawley tahun 1930 menyebabkan Depresi Besar.

“Semoga apa yang dilakukan Trump tidak akan mengarah ke tempat yang sama,” kata Warner.
