Yeah, it's going to hit them hard as well. The U.S. is a very big market for our next-door neighbors. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau warned of difficult times ahead for his country. He says Canada doesn't want a trade war, but he added it's not going to just surrender either. Trudeau says Canada is ready to push back with retaliatory tariffs of its own on U.S. exports.

Mexico and China are also likely to retaliate. We saw that during the first Trump administration with other countries put tariffs on things like Kentucky bourbon and Harley-Davidson motorcycles. You might remember U.S. farmers lost a lot of business overseas and the federal government wound up paying some of the farmers for the corn and soybean sales they missed out on.

You know, Trump was no fan of the original North American free trade agreement, but he and his allies did renegotiate that pact the last time he was in the White House. That deal is due for a possible update next year.

The vote signals a degree of bipartisan support for the new Treasury Secretary. Scott Besson is a billionaire hedge fund manager who's seen as a business-friendly choice. He's also a protege of Democratic mega-donor George Soros. As Secretary, Besson will be a leading voice for the administration on economic policy. He's expected to lead the push to extend and possibly expand the 2017 tax cuts.

He might also help to moderate some of Trump's most protectionist instincts. Besson told the Financial Times he thinks the president uses tariffs as a negotiating tactic.
