William McKinley, the 25th president, loved tariffs and expanded American territory. What more do you need to know?

Much like despots before him, Trump is employing a classic authoritarian tactic to justify some of his worst plans.

Trump reiterated his claim that China is “operating” the Panama Canal and said that the critical waterway had been “foolishly” given to Panama. “We didn't give it to China. We gave it to Panama, and we’re taking it back.”

For a start, firms usually pass on tariffs by raising prices. During Mr Trump’s last sortie against Chinese manufacturing in 2018-19, prices of impacted items went up roughly one-for-one with higher tariffs.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum joked that if Trump went ahead with the renaming, her country would rename North America “Mexican America.” On Tuesday, she toned it down: “For us and for the entire world it will continue to be called the Gulf of Mexico.”

The abduction of a young Chinese actor, who was trafficked from Thailand to Myanmar, prompted an unusually powerful public-pressure campaign and official actions.

President Donald Trump has vowed to lower prices for all Americans, but his tariff proposal could work counter to that goal.
