The clock is ticking down to zero, and Trump needs a trade deal — badly​

President Donald Trump, the dealmaker-in-chief, has said for weeks that at least one trade deal is imminent with one of the dozens of countries in active negotiations with the United States to avoid punishing tariffs. So where is it?

On Sunday aboard Air Force One, Trump said there “could very well be” trade deals announced this week. He also said that last week. And the week before.

WE'RE ALL WAITING FOR THE FIRST WEAK COUNTRY TO BOW TO TRUMP.

Trump’s lifelong belief in tariffs is about to face its acid test​

President Donald Trump’s lifelong belief that tariffs can make the United States even richer by forcing other nations to bend to his demands is only being reinforced by the early skirmishes in his trade wars.

But this worldview is facing its acid test at a moment when Americans are about to feel its painful consequences.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will meet with Chinese officials this weekend in neutral Switzerland, a venue that will lend an echo of US-Soviet Cold War summits to the most serious economic showdown yet between the two 21st-century superpowers.
