President Donald Trump’s trade agenda is sparking concerns among American consumers, with a recent poll suggesting that most believe the tariffs he imposed will ultimately harm household finances. According to a Harris Poll conducted by Bloomberg News, 56% of respondents say their financial situation would be better off if the tariffs had not been implemented, while 52% agree that the promised benefits do not outweigh the economic cost. This growing discontent among US consumers may pose a significant challenge for Trump’s trade policies.
