White House advisors claimed the flip flop was always the strategy, suggesting that the past week of massive tariffs that triggered huge market losses was all for show…

… Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Trump was always planning to pull back his sweeping tariff plans for dozens of countries just days after announcing it.

“This was his strategy all along,” Bessent tells reporters at the White House.

“You might even say he goaded China into a bad position,” Bessent says, referring to the fact that China, which imposed retaliatory tariffs, now faces higher U.S. duties while others get a reprieve.
