President Trump is holding firm in his economic plans, even as stocks opened Monday morning at a loss and discontent grew over the weekend with his tariff agenda.
He pushed back on criticism quickly on Monday, calling on Americans to be patient.
“Don’t be Weak! Don’t be Stupid! Don’t be a PANICAN (A new party based on Weak and Stupid people!). Be Strong, Courageous, and Patient, and GREATNESS will be the result!” Trump said on Truth Social.
Later in the morning, he threatened an additional 50 percent tariff on China, which had responded last week to Trump's 34 percent tariff on imports by implementing the same on American imports.
Trump's Monday agenda includes a meeting with a key ally, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Tariffs are certain to come up, as Israel was among the dozens of nations hit with an import levy. But the escalated war in Gaza will also be front and center.
Congress also returns to work Monday. House Republican leaders are urging their members to adopt the Senate’s version of the budget resolution, passed early Saturday, which will tee up Trump’s ambitious legislative agenda.
Follow along all day for updates.
