U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday he plans to impose tariffs on imported cars around April 2.
Trump made the remark in the Oval Office when asked by reporters about his auto tariff comments earlier in the week.
“Over the next — sometime, maybe, around April 2,” Trump said. "I would have done them on April 1, believe it or not. I’m a little superstitious. No, literally, we had it planned for April 1. I said, ‘let’s make it April 2.’

The scope of the tariffs is unclear.

April fools, all of them.
The next episode of Trump drama! I can’t wait for Canada to trade more with the EU!
Time for Republicans to admit that Trump was a DEI hire.
Hes just a puppet for silicon valley.
There’s a pattern of brewing menace on a Friday afternoon only to downplay them on Monday. Or it’s just me reading too much out of this chaos?
That aspect may just be him + cronies buying the dip as the market adjusts to his nonsense. If only the market could do something for us now 🥲
Mump is solving the global warming crisis! First slap a tariff on the raw materials coming from Canada to the US for machining, then go through Mexico’s retaliatory tariffs to the assembly plants in Mexico, then this new round of tariffs on the finished product going to car lots in the US.
It’ll be so expensive that nobody will be able to afford to buy a vehicle, curbing emissions overnight! The oil industry will collapse as a result.
