Trump Softens Tone on China, Signals Deal Is Coming
Donald Trump has sharply dialed back his rhetoric on China, signaling a more optimistic outlook on trade relations.
• A deal with China “will be reached”
• China “will be happy” with the outcome
• Final tariffs won’t hit 145%, but won’t drop to zero either
• Talks are going well with China and “almost all countries”
• Tariffs will ultimately benefit the US — “everyone will win”
A notable shift ahead of key economic and election milestones.
