'The economic damage is already done'
A roundup of the headlines from the US front pages
President Donald Trump's "trade clash with China rattles exporters" and "farmers are bracing for loss of a major market," The New York Times says on Friday's front page. "U.S.-China battle spares no one," and "Trump's tariffs flip threatens bargaining position," The Wall Street Journal says. Trump's team faces "a scramble to make progress in trade talks," The Washington Post says. "U.S., China division putting global trade system on brink," The Boston Globe says, but for the U.S., "the economic damage is already done." The "GOP fears a political payback from tariffs," USA Today says.
