President Donald Trump said tariffs on some goods from Canada and Mexico planned for April 2 “could go up,” and would not predict whether the United States will have a recession in 2025.

Trump’s acknowledgment of economic turbulence was a reversal from previous cheering of his policies, and it contrasted with reassurances from his own advisers Sunday.

President Trump said that Americans would be better off in the long run from his tariffs, which he said would prevent the country from being “ripped off.”
