Donald Trump has promised huge things on trade and tariffs, setting the deadline (again) for this Friday, Aug. 1. But so far, those deals haven't come through.
The White House has officially inked three (3) deals of 90 they promised to have finished a month ago, and still have 166 "letters of deals" to send out.
Grant breaks down where things are at, why the two latest "deals" with the EU and Japan may already be falling apart, and what that means for the rest of us in the meantime, including the possibility of another round of checks with Trump's name on them.
