Trump brings tariffs to his immigration fight

President Trump plans to impose a 5 percent tariff on all imported goods from Mexico starting June 10, then “gradually increase” it until the flow of undocumented immigrants across the border into the U.S. stops, the NYT reports.

• “Tariffs would be raised to 10 percent on July 1 ‘if the crisis persists,’ and then by an additional 5 percent each month for three months.”

• “They would remain at 25 percent until Mexico acted.” Exactly what it would have to do is unclear.

• Mexico is Washington’s largest trading partner, and sent the U.S. $346.5 billion of goods last year — 5 percent of that is more than $17 billion.
