Trump’s tariffs are facing opposition at home, especially from young adults, non-college voters, individuals earning less than $50,000 per year, and Hispanics. A CNN/SSRS poll released on March 12 found that 61% of Americans, and 78% of young adults, disapprove of the way Trump is handling tariffs. Although Americans favor higher tariffs on China, they oppose imposing them on longtime friends and allies.
During the first two months of his second term, President Donald Trump has shown that he is serious about bringing manufacturing production back to the United States—and that he is willing to use sweeping tariffs to make this happen. He cannot be surprised that his strategy is generating fierce opposition and retaliation from other countries. He may be surprised, however, that his tariffs are facing opposition at home, especially from the groups—young adults, non-college voters, individuals earning less than $50,000 per year, and Hispanics—whose votes put him over the top last November.
