Well congress has until July to reign them in before they (and the people) lose even more money in their savings. They better be swift.


There's no actual commitment here. He could reverse again tonight. He signaled ongoing dissatisfaction with countries that had retaliated, so may well take further action there during the 90 days, which 90 days are, again, meaningless in that they don't bind him at all, and even if they did, he's done a bunch of things he's "not allowed to" and so far has gotten away with tons of it.


You're right. But as we see with TikTok, he loves to talk big but keep kicking thr can down the road instead of backing off. There will inevitably be more spats in the meantime (especially with the EU), but I wouldn't be surprised if he extends it more when July looms (assuming that congress bill is still struggling to pass).


Could you elaborate on what will happen in July?


That's 90 days from today when the tariffs are supposed to take effect again.


What's in July?


That's 90 days from now.
