Key quotes

We’re talking about leaving [the tariffs] for a substantial period of time because we have to make sure that China lives by the deal.

China has had “a lot of problems living by certain deals, and we have to make sure.

The deal is coming along nicely. The China trip was intended “to further the deal.”

We’re so far down, it’s got to be a great deal. If it’s not a great deal, you never catch up.
