Today, President Donald Trump has set a new potential start date to impose tariffs on Mexico and Canada.
He told reporters that he is eyeing April 2nd.
“The damage has been done. We’ve lost millions of people due to fentanyl, it comes mostly from China but it comes through Mexico and it comes from Canada. I have to tell you that April 2nd, I was going to do April 1st, but I’m a little bit superstitious, but April 2nd the tariffs will go on.”
