BIARRITZ, France — President Donald Trump on Sunday acknowledged having second thoughts about escalating a trade war with China, but the White House later reversed, saying the president was misinterpreted and that his only regret in hiking tariffs is that he didn't raise them higher.
White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow offered a different explanation when interviewed Sunday by CBS'"Face the Nation," saying Trump"didn't quite hear the question." Reporters asked Trump about regret three times in succession. Trump then said:"I have second thoughts about everything" when another reporter repeated the original question.
Johnson, who praised Trump for America's economic performance, also chided the U.S. leader for his unbending China policy. Trump then entered the first official summit meeting, initially set as a discussion of foreign policy and security issues. But White House aides claimed he engineered a late change to the summit schedule, adding economic issues to the agenda.
