The GOP, or the Grand Old Party, also known as the Republican Party, have been attempting to minimize the impact of former President Donald Trump’s increasingly aggressive threats to global trade policies. The Trump administration had become notorious for its ‘America First’ policy that often involved imposing hefty tariffs on goods imported from other countries. Critics argue that such aggressive trade policies could harm global trade networks and the global economy at large. However, representatives from the Republican Party maintain that these measures were necessary to negotiate better trade deals and protect American businesses and workers.
