White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt emphasized on Tuesday that President Donald Trump is taking the recent volatility in the stock markets seriously, especially as it relates to his administration’s tariff policies. During a press briefing, Leavitt acknowledged that the public’s concerns are legitimate and affirmed that the president is addressing them actively.

“President Trump takes these concerns very seriously and is addressing them every single day,” Leavitt stated. Her remarks come amid mounting public anxiety about the impact of proposed tariffs on financial markets and long-term economic stability.

Leavitt further noted that an upcoming announcement from the administration is intended to ensure that future generations can “live the American Dream.” She defended the tariffs as necessary and effective, expressing confidence that the policy will deliver positive results despite short-term uncertainty.

“Tomorrow’s announcement is to protect future generations. The tariffs are going to work,” she declared, underscoring the administration’s commitment to reshaping trade practices in favor of U.S. interests.

In response to questions about global reaction and market fluctuations, Leavitt reiterated the president’s willingness to engage in dialogue with global leaders. “The president will take any call from anyone willing to negotiate the issue,” she said, highlighting the administration’s openness to talks that could lead to more balanced trade outcomes.

While the markets have reacted unpredictably to recent trade developments, the White House maintains that the long-term strategy is grounded in strengthening the U.S. economy and protecting national interests. The administration believes that targeted tariffs will pressure trading partners to enter fairer agreements.

As anticipation builds ahead of the administration’s next tariff announcement, attention remains focused on how financial markets and global leaders will respond. Trump’s economic team is expected to provide additional details aimed at reassuring investors and clarifying policy intentions in the coming days.
