The president’s supporters portray him as a top dealmaker. But, at least for now, far more trading partners have gotten stiff tariffs than trade deals.

President Donald Trump is hitting some of America’s biggest trading partners with new tariff threats with some as high as 50%.

President Trump is pushing through with his tariff agenda, unveiling a new batch of letters to country leaders outlining tariffs on goods imported from their countries beginning in August and a warning to BRICS nations.

President Donald Trump extended his "Liberation Day" tariff pause and sent letters to trading partners announcing new tariff rates for Aug. 1.

Mexico did not face a new tariff on April 2, the day of Trump's so-called "Liberation Day" tariff rollout. There remains a 25% tariff on non-USMCA-compliant goods from Canada and Mexico, as well as a 50% tariff on steel, aluminum and derivative products.

President Donald Trump has managed to make his erratic trade policies even more baffling to countries desperate to negotiate an escape from his wrath.

The pause on the biggest of Trump's tariffs won't end this week, as planned, but the problems they present still loom large.
