White House Sees Deadline-Driven Trade Deals Amid Growing Economic Uncertainty and Anxiety
President Trump's impatience for trade deals grows as economic anxiety builds, despite his claim of a 'golden age' for the American economy. He warned about potential consequences on trade deals in his 101st day speech.
President Donald Trump is growing increasingly impatient to secure trade deals as economic anxiety builds, having marked significant milestones on his first 100 and 101 days in office by crowing about the US economy's potential for a golden age made possible by new tariffs. However, no major trade agreements have been reached yet. The impatience has raised concerns among Trump's advisors that he may be taking a confrontational approach to negotiations. As a result, some experts warn that his aggressive stance could harm the US economy in the long run.
