NY Post readers discuss President Trump’s pause of larger tariffs on some countries for 90 days after stock-market chaos.
The Issue: President Trump’s pause of larger tariffs on some countries for 90 days after stock-market chaos.
It’s like what President Trump said: “Someone had to do it” (“ ‘Yippy’ . . . to yippee!” April 10).
The pause, resulting from numerous countries reaching out for negotiation, is proof that his plan is effective.
When we agreed to embrace the World Trade Organization model of global economics, I don’t think tens of thousands of plant closings and those jobs getting shipped to foreign countries was what we expected.
This is a good way to fix the imbalances in trade agreements that have existed for decades.
There are so many benefits to Trump’s approach, such as stopping the exploitation of cheap labor and giving us the chance to restore our middle class with manufacturing jobs.
I’m from a middle-class family, and all my dad’s jobs, ranging from automotive to plant manager, were closed and shipped overseas.
The time is now!

President Trump did a turnaround, and the stock market rebounded.
