President Trump said Monday that the 25 percent tariffs on Canada and Mexico will officially go into effect Tuesday, announcing there is no room for deal making to delay them again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe tariffs, they\u2019re all set. They go into effect tomorrow,\u201d he said, adding there\u2019s \u201cno room left for Mexico or Canada\u201d to make a deal before midnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump had warned last week that the tariffs will go forward after he delayed them<\/a> for a month following conversations with the Canadian and Mexican leaders, during which they agreed to action to address the flow of drugs at the border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump said Monday that \u201cvast amounts of fentanyl got poured into our country\u201d largely through Mexico and from China, and he encouraged car manufacturers to build plants in the U.S. to avoid the upcoming tariffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo, what they have to do is build their car plants, frankly, and other things in the United States, in which case they have no tariffs,\u201d Trump said Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The president also announced that reciprocal tariffs will start April 2, which will cover imports from all nations that levy import taxes on U.S. goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cReciprocal tariffs start on April 2. And I wanted to make it April 1, but I didn\u2019t want to do it, I didn\u2019t want to go April Fool\u2019s Day, because that \u2026 costs a lot of money \u2026 so we\u2019re going April 2,\u201d Trump quipped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump said on Truth Social<\/a> earlier Monday that tariffs on \u201cexternal\u201d agricultural products will be imposed early April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTo the Great Farmers of the United States: Get ready to start making a lot of agricultural product to be sold INSIDE of the United States. Tariffs will go on external product on April 2nd. Have fun!\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stock market took a hit after Trump\u2019s announcements on tariffs. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down more than 700 points after Trump\u2019s announcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The president also suggested Monday that the 10 percent tariffs on China could increase to 20 percent. When Trump delayed the tariffs on Canada and Mexico, he had imposed a 10 percent tariff on Chinese imports over the issue of fentanyl production, and China responded with<\/a> retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
