Trump spares NAFTA partners from tariffs on steel, aluminum
(Worthy News) – President Trump ordered tariffs Thursday on foreign steel and aluminum, brushing aside objections in his own party but sparing Canada and Mexico temporarily while the U.S. pushes its neighbors for a more favorable free trade deal.
