Trump sparks health fears as he ‘forgets’ to sign executive order and has to be ‘guided’ back to his seat(Video)

President Trump just announced sweeping new taxes on imports that will affect nearly all countries trading with the U.S. – and it’s causing quite a stir. During a lengthy White House speech where he claimed other nations have been “looting” America for decades, Trump signed an order imposing tariffs ranging from 10% to a whopping 49% on foreign goods.

The move didn’t go smoothly though. In a moment that’s gone viral, Trump finished his fiery speech and started walking off stage – completely forgetting to actually sign the order. Staff had to quickly guide him back to the desk to complete the paperwork, leading to jokes online comparing it to Biden’s occasional memory lapses.

Trump says these new taxes will bring factory jobs back to America and stop other countries from “ripping us off.” But experts warn regular Americans will likely pay the price through higher costs for everyday items like clothes, cars, and even homes. The stock market has already taken a hit as investors worry about the economic impact.

Some Republican lawmakers, especially from farming states, are nervous this could backfire. History suggests they might be right – similar tariffs in 1930 made the Great Depression worse by sparking global trade wars. Trump’s using emergency powers to bypass Congress, which could be risky since many voters elected him to fight inflation, not cause price hikes.

While the president promises these taxes will force companies to manufacture in America again, the immediate effect may be more pain than gain for U.S. consumers and businesses that rely on imported materials. As one policy expert put it: “We’re dangerously close to repeating one of the worst economic mistakes in American history.”
