Trump tariffs on Mexico, Canada, China are hours away from hitting at midnight

The Trump administration is set to implement significant tariffs on goods from Canada, Mexico, and China, hours away from going into effect. The tariffs were originally postponed after negotiations but no agreement has been reached to avert them. The White House justifies the tariffs as a response to drug trafficking and suggests that negotiations on the final tariff levels are ongoing. Canada has indicated it will retaliate against U.S. goods if the tariffs are enforced, while Mexico's leadership insists on being treated with respect in negotiations. The tariffs could lead to higher prices for American consumers if they are ultimately implemented.
