It contrasts partisan claims with historians’ views, and highlights the rise of income tax in 1913 and postwar tariff regimes shaping U.S. growth.

Wall Street swings as Trump tariff talks loom
Wall Street opened with a strong 4.1 percent gain but ended deep in the red as traders reassessed the impact of President Trump’s tariffs. The S&P 500 shed about 1.6 percent for the day, the Dow fell 320 points, and the Nasdaq dropped 2.1 percent after earlier surges. Global markets had rallied earlier, but investors remain unsettled about how long tariffs will last and whether talks with allies can avert a recession. Trump touted talks with South Korea as promising, while saying other countries also seek deals with the United States.
