Trump Has Another Strategy to Resurrect Global Tariffs

July 23, 2026 · 4:29 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“The Trump administration has cycled through trade law after trade law as it tries to find a sound legal basis to impose the steep tariffs on foreign products that President Trump wants,” the New York Times reports.

“It is poised to try yet another approach.”

“A global 10 percent tariff that Mr. Trump imposed in February after the Supreme Court struck down his earlier global tariffs is set to lapse at 12:01 a.m. on Friday. The administration has a new batch of tariffs ready to go to replace it, which could be announced as soon as Thursday.”

The Guardian: White House trails announcement on tariffs amid reports of new duties.
