“TARIFFS WILL START BEING PAID ON AUGUST 1, 2025.,” Trump posted Tuesday morning to Truth Social, the social media website he owns. “There has been no change to this date, and there will be no change. In other words, all money will be due and payable starting AUGUST 1, 2025 - No extensions will be granted.”

After President Donald Trump paused his “Liberation Day” tariffs in April, his trade adviser Peter Navarro promised that the administration would deliver “90 deals in 90 days.” But that deadline came and went Wednesday with the White House 88 trade deals short.
