WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s order imposing new tariffs on scores of countries and the European Union starting in seven days has injected a new dose of uncertainty in an already uncertain process. Trump has promised these tariffs will boost the U.S. economy and create jobs. He tells NBC News the tariffs process is “very smooth.” But critics warn the tariffs could harm America’s global standing and increase inflation. The legality of the tariffs is being questioned in court, with judges expressing skepticism. Major companies warn of financial pain. And there are concerns about rising inflation and job losses in manufacturing. Trump signed the order imposing new tariffs Thursday night.
