The Trump administration is brimming with confidence regarding its tariff plans, according to National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett. In a recent interview on ABC’s “This Week,” Hassett expressed strong belief in the legal viability of the administration’s approach, referring to it as “Plan A.”
“We are very confident that the judges would uphold this law. And so I think that that’s Plan A, and we’re very, very confident that Plan A is all we’re ever going to need,” Hassett stated.
However, the administration isn’t leaving anything to chance. Hassett hinted at alternative strategies should the courts rule against the president’s initial plan. He assured viewers that the White House possesses “other alternatives” to ensure fair trade practices for the United States.
This strategic approach underscores the administration’s commitment to its trade agenda, even as it anticipates potential legal challenges. The specifics of these alternative plans remain undisclosed, leaving observers to speculate on the potential next steps in the ongoing trade debate.
