Days of rapid-fire developments raised the stakes for President Trump's coming promise of vast new tariffs. But it provided even less clarity on what he will actually implement as his self-imposed deadline looms in just two days.
Perhaps the only thing clear at this point is that a dizzying array of options remain on the table for what Trump calls "Liberation Day."
On Monday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that Trump would announce the details of his tariffs Wednesday in a Rose Garden event before his cabinet.
She deferred repeatedly when asked about the president's plans but added that trading partners like the European Union, Japan, India, and Canada have shown "disdain for the American worker" and said that there would be "no exemptions at this time" for groups like farmers. She also downplayed recent stock market declines.

The slobfather loves the American worker so much he's going to raise their cost of living.

If he announces some sort of a "resolution" to the threats, or some softening, it will cause the market so soar. Everyone will make out like bandits.
