Trump team moves goalposts on tariffs again​

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warns tariffs will ‘boomerang back’ Aug. 1.

[...]


Tariffs will revert back to their April 2 rates on Aug. 1 for countries that fail to nail down new trade deals with the United States, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Sunday, just three days before the Trump administration’s initial July 9 deadline for tariffs to return.

[...]

Since announcing sweeping so-called reciprocal tariffs, the Trump administration has only signed agreements with the United Kingdom and Vietnam, as well as a limited deal with China that saw both countries walk back sky-high tit-for-tat tariff rates temporarily. The U.S. is also reportedly close to reaching a deal with India, and the European Union, which Trump once accused of slow-walking negotiations, appears willing to make significant concessions for a deal.

“There’s a lot of congestion going into the home stretch and, as a part of the trade team, what’s great about having President Trump on our side is he’s created maximum leverage,” Bessent said.

Too bad a certain captain isn't around anymore to explain why this latest TACO is an ultra-strategic 5D manoeuvre from Trump.

Pssst. Psssst, India. Yo. Yo, India. Can you hear me? Yo, India, look over here! Shit... ok. Bobs and vagene! Ok, now you're listening. That's a really good deal; you should definitely take it. My cousin's friend's aunt once passed up a crazy good deal when she was young... she's still kickin' herself about it even today! Her grandkids say she sleep-talks cursing herself for not taking the deal every night! Don't want that to be you, do ya? You gotta jump on it now!
