Trump Achieves Record Approval Rating as Poll Shows Widespread Support for His Policies.

In an attempt to address trade imbalances and boost domestic industry, Trump imposed a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum on Wednesday. Canada and Europe swiftly responded with billions of dollars in retaliatory tariffs.

Trump acknowledged in a recent speech to Congress that his presidency was getting off to a “swift and unrelenting” start. He talked about and defended many of his administration’s contentious policies, including his ongoing crackdown on immigration and border control, his 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico, his severe government cuts and mass layoffs, and his elimination of wokeness and diversity initiatives in the workforce and schools.
