U.S. President Donald Trump was asked to respond to news that Prime Minister Mark Carney and Chinese President Xi Jinping came to an agreement on trade.
“Well, it’s OK. That’s what he should be doing,” Trump told reporters Friday at the White House. “If you can get a deal with China, you should do that.”
Earlier in the day, Trump’s own administration shared conflicting messaging regarding the deal, saying Canada may regret the decision.
