Trump Aides Insist That Tariffs Will Remain

“President Trump’s top economic advisers stressed on Sunday that they would not be deterred by a recent court decision declaring many of the administration’s tariffs to be illegal, pointing to other authorities the White House could invoke to pressure China and other nations into trade negotiations,” the New York Times reports.

“They also signaled that Mr. Trump had no plans to extend an original 90-day pause on some of his steepest tariff rates, raising the odds that those duties — the mere announcement of which had roiled markets — could take effect as planned in July.”

Axios: “America is so far defying the gloomiest economic forecasts, but tariff threats keep scrambling the good news.”
