'You clearly missed art of the deal': Karoline Leavitt scolds reporters after tariff pause

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt lashed out at reporters after President Donald Trump ordered a 90-day pause on most of his tariffs.

During an impromptu news conference outside the White House, Leavitt announced that the 90-day pause would affect almost all countries — but would not include Chinese goods, which now face 125% tariffs because she said it retaliated.

"The tariff on China will now go up to 125% because China imprudently decided to retaliate against the United States," the press secretary told reporters. "In that same vein, we have had more than 75 countries from around the world reach out to President Trump and his team here at the White House to negotiate better trade deals for the American worker."

"There will be a 90-day pause on the reciprocal tariffs as these negotiations are ongoing, and the tariff level will be brought down to a universal 10 percent tariff," she added.

Leavitt seemed annoyed after being peppered with questions about why Trump blinked on his trade war.

"Many of you in the media clearly missed the art of the deal," she snapped. "You clearly failed to see what President Trump is doing here."

"The entire world is calling the United States of America, not China, because they need our markets, they need our consumers, and they need this president in the Oval Office to talk to them."
