Trump said tariffs on some goods from Canada and Mexico planned for April 2 “could go up” and would not predict whether the United States will have a recession.

Trump at first imposed 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican exports to the U.S., then exempted the duties on Mexican- and Canadian-made vehicles being transported into the U.S. and later by week’s end delayed the tariffs on almost all items for four weeks until April 2.
