From the New York Times, I'm Rachel Abrams.

This is the Daily.

President Trump says he's going to announce so-called reciprocal tariffs on every country with duties placed on the U.S.

With less than a month in office, we're just hours into a new trade conflict.

President Trump has pursued more trade actions against adversaries and allies than all the trade measures he took in his entire first term.

Tariffs ordered by President Trump, one and two effects at mid-pack.

Canada and Mexico will be among the hardest hit by these tariffs.

These tariffs more than triple what was done during the first term.

And there's one man guiding it all.

President-elect Trump choosing Peter Navarro for a top economic position in his next administration.

Today, my colleague Anna Swanson on how Peter Navarro rose to become one of Trump's key

advisors and why he thinks tariffs will usher in a new era of American prosperity.

It's Tuesday, February 18th.

Hi, Anna. Hey, how are you? Good. Thank you for being here. I wanted to talk to you because you covered President Trump in his first term and you focused a ton on international trade. So I figured you would be the right person to talk to and help me understand this key advisor, Peter Navarro, who's been advising Trump on all of these tariff policies

that we've been hearing about recently. Right. So I met Peter Navarro when I was covering trade

policy in Trump's first term, and he's an interesting person because he had a very unusual

journey to the White House.

And he had views about trade and in China that were considered pretty unconventional and unpopular.

But over time, these views have become one of the driving forces of Trump's trade policy.

So I'm pleased to see you after four long years of exile.

So recently I went to see him again with two colleagues from the Daily.

I actually listened to the Daily.
