Following Donald Trump's bombshell speech regarding tariffs for each country, these are the items that Americans might see become more expensive.
On April 2, the former President stood in the White House Rose Garden to announce a massive overhaul of U.S. trade policy, unveiling sweeping new tariffs on nearly every country on Earth.
His message was clear, as he stated that it’s time to “Make America Wealthy Again.”
But behind the bluster, everyday Americans could be the ones left footing the bill — because these new tariffs are expected to make a long list of consumer goods significantly more expensive.
Each country now faces a base tariff of at least 10 percent for anything coming into the U.S., with some slammed with rates as high as 50 percent.
However, three major nations were conspicuously missing from Trump’s updated hit list: Canada, Mexico, and China.
And no, it’s not because they’re in Trump’s good books — they’ve already been hit with tariffs under separate trade rules.
So what does this all mean for Americans? A lot, especially when it comes to your weekly grocery haul, your wardrobe, and even your car, as reported by BBC News.
Wine, coffee, and champagne? Prepare to pay moreTrump has threatened to slap a 200 percent tariff on alcohol from the EU — which means you might have to kiss cheap Spanish wine, French champagne, and German beer goodbye.
The U.S. is also one of the world’s biggest coffee importers, with Brazil and Colombia topping the list of suppliers. Both countries are now facing 10 percent tariffs — a cost that will almost certainly get passed on to consumers.
Your closet’s about to get more expensive tooWhen it comes to clothes and shoes, the U.S. relies heavily on imports from China, Bangladesh, and Vietnam.
Vietnam in particular is facing a massive 46 percent tariff, set to kick in on April 9 — and that could seriously drive up the cost of everything from sneakers to school uniforms.
All foreign cars and car parts are now subject to a 25 percent tariff — and that doesn’t just mean imported cars will cost more. U.S.-made vehicles that rely on foreign parts are likely to jump in price too.
According to the Anderson Economic Group, this could raise car prices anywhere from $2,500 to $20,000.
Even your maple syrup is under fireIf you’ve got a bottle of Canadian maple syrup in your fridge — brace yourself. With 90 percent of the sweet stuff coming from Quebec, it’s one of the products most vulnerable to tariff hikes.
“That maple syrup is going to become more expensive. And that's a direct price increase that households will face,” said Thomas Sampson from the London School of Economics. “If I buy goods that are domestically produced in the US, but [which use] inputs from Canada, the price of those goods is also going to go up.”
So… why did Canada, Mexico, and China get left off the new list?
Simple: they’ve already been hit.
Canada is subject to a 25 percent tariff on non-compliant CUSMA goods (that’s the Canada-US-Mexico Agreement), plus 10 percent on certain energy products.
The new 25 percent car tariff? Yep, that applies to Canada too — along with previous levies on steel and aluminium.
Mexico, also part of CUSMA, has existing tariffs in place and currently escapes the new wave — at least for now.
Trump has criticized both Canada and Mexico for allegedly failing to stop illegal drugs and migrant flows into the U.S., but stopped short of re-listing them under the new policy.
And as for Russia? Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent explained to Fox News: “Well, Russia and Belarus we don’t trade with. Right? They are sanctioned.”
This, despite Trump reportedly being “p**sed off” with Vladimir Putin for calling for a transitional government in Ukraine — a move widely seen as an attempt to install a pro-Kremlin regime.
Although Trump has claimed he could end the war in 24 hours, Russia recently rejected another U.S. peace proposal, adding new demands.
