If Trump wins the election in 2024, how will the high - tariff policy affect the global economy?
Donald Trump won the 2024 US presidential election and promised to implement a high - tariff policy, which has a significant impact on US domestic consumption and the global economy. Research by the National Retail Federation of the United States shows that the implementation of tariffs could cause US consumers to lose up to $78 billion in purchasing power annually, affecting holiday sales. In addition, high tariffs may trigger a Sino - US trade war, shrinking the global GDP and increasing economic pressure on various countries. The US agricultural sector also faces losses of billions or even tens of billions of dollars.
