Trump defends Michigan auto tariffs amid analyst criticism

President Donald Trump told a rally in Milford, Michigan on 30 July that tariffs are boosting the auto industry, while analysts and some voters warned the measures are raising prices and causing job losses. He had visited a General Motors plant in the same town on 25 July, promoting his economic record and defending the tariffs as beneficial for the sector. BBC reporting noted that job growth in the state remained weak and unemployment stayed above the national average, and Trump later told Fox & Friends that recent and upcoming duties are generating hundreds of billions of dollars for the United States.
