President Donald Trump acknowledged that his sweeping tariff program had risked imperiling him politically, but said he would not rush deals to appease nervous investors during a town hall on Wednesday.

The White House’s angry tussle with Amazon over whether the giant online retailer would show consumers the added costs of tariffs on their orders points to President Donald Trump’s personal persuasive powers but also a profound vulnerability on the issue of trade.

Amazon said staff had considered listing tariff costs on its Temu competitor, Amazon Haul, but that it’s “not going to happen.” The Trump administration had condemned the idea.
