A few days ago , US Republican presidential candidate Trump said that he would impose tariffs of up to 200% on cars from Mexico. In addition, he also specifically named a number of American companies, claiming that measures would be introduced against these companies to allow these companies to "bring their business back to the United States."
Trump has previously promised that if re-elected, he would impose a 100% tariff on imported cars to help the US domestic auto industry. But speaking at a rally at the Juneau, Wisconsin, airport on Sunday, Trump doubled that number. "We will impose 200% tariffs if necessary," he said. "We will not let it happen. We will not let these cars enter the United States."
