Hi Tomoko. I look at Trump as a master negotiator. The tariffs are not there to be imposed but avoided. They are a threat to get nations to change their behavior in favor of Trump’s demands. I don’t think Trump intended them as a lasting arrangement. At the moment it is probably easier to bend to US demands than switch trade relations to China and Brics.
Interesting view.
I remember, his policies did quickly shift when he was the president last time.
