Trump and Tariffs: Was it Worth The Fight?

It’s been about eight months since President Trump launched a trade war with China, and it looks like we might be approaching an agreement between the two nations.

Trump says that trade relationship with China has been unfair to the U.S. To force a change, he’s put in place punishing tariffs on Chinese goods to gain leverage. But that’s also punishing some in the U.S., like farmers, automakers manufacturers and even some consumers.

If the deal is made, the big question will be, was it all worth it? On this episode of Money Talking, Charlie Herman talks with Rick Newman, senior columnist for Yahoo Finance, about how the impact of the trade war and what, if anything, the deal will change.
