Biden wants Trump to rethink Canada, Mexico tariff plans

President Biden hopes President-elect Trump reconsiders his plan to impose new tariffs on America’s neighbors. Trump has threatened to slap a 25 percent tariff on all products coming into the United States from Canada and Mexico. When asked about those plans, President Biden said it’s “counterproductive” and he hopes Trump “rethinks it.” The president said the U-S is “surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, and two allies, Mexico and Canada.” Mr. Biden said, “the last thing we need to do is begin to screw up those relationships.”
