A week before the 90‑day pause expires on his so-called reciprocal tariffs, Four Corners dives into the chaos created by Donald Trump’s trade policy.

Reported by Steve Cannane, Trading in Chaos investigates how the very people the president set out to help are now being harmed.

From soybean farms in North Carolina to toy warehouses in Texas, from the ports of New York and New Jersey to the rust belt of Pennsylvania, Steve and the Four Corners team have crisscrossed the US to talk to those most affected by the tariffs.

The film captures the confusion, uncertainty and fear generated by Trump’s whiplash-inducing tariffs, policies that experts say will increase the cost of living, make the US poorer and the world a less prosperous and secure place.
