President Trump is not backing away from his tariff policies despite a sharp downturn on Wall Street. In the face of tumbling stock prices and increased worries about a recession, the White House says the president is “unwavering” in his approach to tariffs and trade. Asked about the recent Wall Street losses, the president said “markets are going to go up and down.” He went on to say that he believes what his administration is doing is “the right thing to do” — even if it means a little, in his words, “disturbance.”
