White House shares staggering number of countries who want to make deals on tariffs | 6 April 2025 | More than 50 countries have reached out to the Trump administration to negotiate tariff deals, according to a White House advisor. "They're doing that because they understand that they bear a lot of the tariff," National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said on Sunday. Last week, the commander-in-chief implemented a 10 percent "baseline" tariff on all U.S. trading partners. Trump has said that the tariffs are expected to stay, though he did announce that he is open to making deals... "So the fact is, the countries are angry and retaliating," Hassett shared before adding "and, by the way, coming to the table."
