The White House came out swinging Monday morning, slamming down swirling media rumors that President Trump was even considering a so-called “90-day pause” on his historic tariff rollout set to take effect April 9.
The message from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is crystal clear: the reciprocal tariffs are coming, no matter how loud Wall Street and globalist pundits cry.
This is absolute comedy.
The market was blood red today.
Then, an unattributed rumor was started on X that there was a consideration of 90-day tariff pause.
The market turned green.
Then, 5 minutes later, the White House denied the rumor.

After markets temporarily surged on false headlines suggesting there would be a 90-day pause, the administration swiftly clarified: that’s not what was said, and that’s not what’s happening.

White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett, appearing on Fox News, was noncommittal when pressed on a pause: “I think the president is going to decide what the president is going to decide.”
Hassett also revealed that more than 50 countries have already reached out to start negotiations in response to President Trump’s newly announced tariff policies.

Wrong. Not only did Director Hassett not say this (clip below), @POTUS has been clear — “it all has to change, but especially with CHINA!!!” https://t.co/3Kvt8AScAZ pic.twitter.com/JHucHjZm3S

In classic Trump fashion, the President took to Truth Social today to deliver a powerful message to the American people: stay strong, ignore the media hysteria, and embrace the opportunity to bring American manufacturing back home.
President Trump reminded Americans that the path to greatness isn’t paved with weakness or fear—but with courage and strategic strength.
“The United States has a chance to do something that should have been done DECADES AGO. 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!”
In another post, Trump wrote, “We have massive Financial Deficits with China, the European Union, and many others. The only way this problem can be cured is with TARIFFS, which are now bringing Tens of Billions of Dollars into the U.S.A. They are already in effect, and a beautiful thing to behold. The Surplus with these Countries has grown during the “Presidency” of Sleepy Joe Biden. We are going to reverse it, and reverse it QUICKLY. Some day people will realize that Tariffs, for the United States of America, are a very beautiful thing!”
