US President Donald Trump revealed a raft of tariffs on Wednesday causing stock markets to plunge but he remains confident saying: “I think it’s going very well”

Donald Trump claimed the United States will “boom” from tariffs which many economists will cause chaos.

He defended his tariff plans, despite the markets tumbling today. “I think it’s going very well,” he said. “It was an operation, like when a patient gets operated on. And it’s a big thing, I said this would exactly be the way it is.”

“The markets are going to boom, the stock is going to boom, the country’s going to boom and the rest of the world wants to see is there any way we can make a deal,” he adds.

“They’ve taken advantage of us for many, many years. Many years we’ve been on the wrong side of the ball and I tell you what, I think it’s going to be unbelievable.” He added: “You’ll see how it’s going to turn out – our country’s going to boom.”
