Trump’s reciprocal tariffs – extra on timing

I popped up a quickie post earlier on comments from Trump saying he’d be signing off on reciprocal tariffs Wednesday or Thursday:

He seemed confused, I guess he has a lot going on.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt appeared to be on firmer ground, saying Thursday looks more likely, with Trump announcing reciprocal tariffs prior to his meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi:

• “I do believe it will come before the prime minister’s visit tomorrow”

Obviously that ‘I do believe’ means Trump’s announcement is not guaranteed on Thursday, but that seems to be a reasonable timeline.
