Trump's been vocal about his love for tariffs, claiming they're the secret sauce for boosting American wealth. He keeps pointing back to the Gilded Age economic playbook—you know, that era before the feds even collected income tax. The guy's basically saying "make tariffs great again" while Wall Street and global markets are trying to figure out what this means for trade flows and asset pricing. Whether you're bullish or bearish on his approach, these policy shifts definitely ripple through every market, crypto included.
