    Depends. Climate goals may be relaxed, because it’s very hard to push through those changes with a population that becomes poorer.

    On the other hand if there is a depression less stuff would be produced and consumed.

    I would not expect the tariffs to last. Most likely scenario is that he will try to use them as negotiation leverage. Everyone will get poorer, who will give in first? The bully or the bullied?
