Quote:
Under President Trump, the U.S. has imposed tariffs on about $113 billion of imports, goods that represented about 4% of all U.S. imports in 2017.
Major U.S. trading partners have responded with tariffs on about $70 billion of exports, or about 3% of U.S. exports.
The sum of goods that have had tariffs actually imposed is less than 1% of U.S. gross domestic product
These numbers could increase, of course.
