Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and others asserted that Trump remains committed to global import tariffs. Bessent said that “there’s no reason to price in a recession.” Trump posted golfing videos and told followers to hang tough while officials called market panic overblown. The administration framed the tariffs as a core part of Trump’s long-term economic vision, one he views as essential to restoring American manufacturing.
