In a bold move to assert economic dominance, President Donald Trump declared that global leaders are anxious to secure trade agreements with the United States. This comes after he announced a sweeping array of tariffs aimed at various countries, including massive duties on Chinese goods and others.

Speaking at the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner, Trump emphasized the eagerness of foreign nations to negotiate, mocking their desperation to strike a deal. "They are dying to make a deal," he proclaimed, adding that new tariffs took effect this week.

Trump also unveiled impending tariffs on pharmaceutical imports, believing that such measures will prompt companies to relocate their production back to the United States, tapping into its vast market. The specifics of these pharmaceutical tariffs have yet to be disclosed.
