The Trump administration is delaying 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico until April 2, the White House said Thursday.

Trump pauses tariffs on autos from Canada, Mexico

President Donald Trump agreed on Wednesday to exempt automotive goods from newly imposed duties on imports from Canada and Mexico.

The 30-day exemption protects auto parts and vehicles from 25% tariffs on all cross-border shipments.

Wherever you fine folks stand on the Tariff Terror allegedly coming down the trade pike, can we all agree there’s a silver lining if the U.S. slaps Truckasaurus-grade levies on every import from Spain to Sumatra?

Oh, I don’t mean the economics of it. We may be huddling in mud shacks or lounging in castles of gold six months from now for all the sense I can make of who stands to benefit when the tariffs hit.

But think of the frightful products that it’ll be soooo much harder to rain down on...
