Trump maintains tariff policy as polls show rising voter disapproval ahead of midterms
President Trump is continuing his aggressive tariff agenda—the steepest U.S. import duties since the Great Depression—despite mounting criticism from trade economists and growing public disapproval. A recent poll found more than 64% of U.S. adults believe Trump has gone too far on tariffs, up from 58% in January, with the Nov. 3 midterm elections approaching.
