Donald Trump facing legal, political headwinds as he eyes comeback

As he prepared to tee off at one of his Florida golf courses, a fellow player introduced Donald Trump as the 45th president of the United States. 45th and 47th, Trump responded matter-of-factly, before hitting his drive. The quip a moment of levity on the links captured on shaky cellphone video was a reminder that the former president often has another presidential run on his mind.

The United States and the United Kingdom have agreed to begin talks on removing former President Donald Trump's import taxes on British steel and aluminum. In a joint statement on Wednesday, US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, US Trade Representative Katherine Tai and UK Trade Minister Anne-Marie Tevelyan said they would be working toward a swift deal that ensures the viability of the steel and aluminum industries in both countries and also "strengthens their democratic alliance". In 2018, Trump imposed tariffs of 25 per cent on foreign steel and 10 per cent on aluminum, calling them a threat to US national security a move that outraged the British, Europeans and other longstanding American allies. Although President Joe Biden had criticized Trump for alienating allies, he was slow once taking office a year ago to undo the metals tariffs, popular in the politically important steel-producing states. Last year, the Biden administration reached a deal with the European Union, agree
