second thoughts on escalating the trade war with china? >> for sure, why not. might as well. might as well. >> you have second thoughts about escalating the war? >> i have second thoughts about everything. >> reporter: what the president meant is that he wishes he raised the tariffs on china even higher. >> if his second thoughts are really about wanting to raise the tariffs higher, is he going to raise the tariffs higher and to what. >> he hasn't made any decision whether he'll raise them higher. >> reporter: new uk prime minister boris johnson told the president he's not a fan of tariffs. >> just to register the faint, sheep-like note on the view of the trade war, we favor trade peace on the whole. >> reporter: all seven world leaders met for a session on the global economy called for by president trump. a senior administration official says the white house feels french president emmanuel macron is spending too much time on toings such as climate change and gender equality to score political points and isolate president trump.

>> it's billions and billions of dollars. tremendous for the farmers. >> reporter: later, the president announced a new trade deal with japan. mr. trump also commented on this weekend's missile test by north korea. kim jong-un's regime claims it has now perfected a new rocket launching system. >> i'm not happy about it. but again, he's not in violation of an agreement. >> reporter: but these tests do violate u.n. security council resolutions supported by the united states. a fact japanese prime minister shinzo abe reiterated to president trump. >> i can understand how the prime minister of japan feels. >> reporter: in what came as a big surprise here in france, the foreign minister of iran suddenly showed up. he ended up having a meet with the president of france but left town before having any sort of meeting with president trump. mark? presumas you. economy under his watch has been great. and despite recent turmoil on

wall street, a new cbs news poll finds a majority of americans give the president good marks for his handling of the economy. our poll also found slightly more people are optimistic than pessimistic about the future of the economy. there's a new weather threat churning in the atlantic. its name is dorian. it's east-southeast of barbados and threatening to intensify into a hurricane. meteorologist jeff bordelli is tracking the storm with more. >> this is something we'll have to watch closely because it could become a hurricane, and it's headed for the caribbean. it's a fairly weak system. winds around 40 miles an hour. it's moving west fast at 14 miles an hour. could strengthen and impact the lesser antilles on tuesday and head near or just to the south of pri and haiti and the dominican republic by wednesday and thursday. maybe as a category 1 hurricane. the best chance of 40-mile-an-hour winds or more probably just to the south of, let's say, puerto rico. but notice tropical storm

advisories for barbados, st. lucia and st. vincent. the band of heaviest winds stays just south of puerto rico but probably too early to tell. after that, we have to see if it starts to strengthen once it gets over the bahamas and threatens florida. it's way too early to know for sure. >> jefr, tracking dorian, thanks. brazil's government is sending troops to battle massive wildfires as the amazon burns at a record rate. the environmental crisis in south america has garnered international attention as the region often referred to as the lungs of the earth goes up in flames. manuel bojorquez is there. >> reporter: we're in the western part of brazil. you might be able to make out the haze around us. that's actually smoke from the fires. we smelled it immediately upon landing here last night, and when it's thick enough, you can taste it. people here tell us they've been dealing with that now for days. the state we are in is one of six that immediately requested

the offer of military assistance from brazil's government to fight the fires. officials announced the availability of more than 40,000 troops and military aircraft yesterday, but only after days of pressure here in brazil and internationally. critics believe that the policies of president bolsinaro which have encouraged opening up more of the amazon to development have dramatically worsened the problem. many fires seem to have been set by farmers clearing land. the president said his government would crack down on illegal activity in the amazon but many fear it's too little, too late. the amazon, of course, is considered key in the battle against climate change. it's also home to a uniquely biodiverse ecosystem and indigenous communities. more than 74,000 fires have been reported since the beginning of the year, mostly in the amazon. 9,500 of them just since thursday. mark? >> manny bojorquez, thanks. andrew luck, the star quarterback of the indianapolis
