Following the imposition of stringent new tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China, President Trump has finally admitted what economists, members of Congress, and some of his former advisors had been saying all along: Americans may have to bear the brunt of these costs. He boldly declared, ‘THIS WILL BE THE GOLDEN AGE OF AMERICA! WILL THERE BE SOME PAIN? YES, MAYBE (AND MAYBE NOT!)’, in all caps on his social media platform. However, when it comes to Canada, his tone takes a more fervent turn, even suggesting the idea of making Canada the 51st state of the United States. The implementation of these tariffs and policies raises questions about whether the slogan ‘Make America Great Again’ is truly for the benefit of the people.
