Trump takes tit-for-tat trade action with tariffs

U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday took what could become his most consequential action involving international trade early in his second administration.
Trump, who signed a memorandum calling for reciprocal tariffs, told a group of reporters in the Oval Office that “if you build your product in the United States, there are no tariffs.”
The goal is to bring down America’s budget deficit, estimated to be approaching $2 trillion.
