As the traditional milestone of the first 100 days of his presidency approaches, President Donald Trump declares that his take-no-prisoners attitude to US commerce will result in a far higher figure.
In an interview with Time magazine published Friday, he indicated that up to 200 accords have been completed or are in the works to reestablish the country’s trading connections with nations and firms all over the world.
Even when confronted with suspicious questions, he refuses to back away.
Eric Cortellessa, Time senior political correspondent, and Sam Jacobs, editor-in-chief of the magazine, conducted the interview on Tuesday in the White House.
