President Trump's tariff strategy, initially chaotic, has become more focused. He's using the threat of steep tariffs to negotiate better trade deals, forcing countries to buy more US goods.

Legal challenges to Trump's tariffs continue, and a weak jobs report raises concerns about the economic impact.
