US President Donald Trump -- sharing stage with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the huge public function by Indian Americans in Houston today -- papered over the tariff-related tensions between the two nations, underscoring the growing trade ties and a shared destination of great prosperity. "India has never invested in the US like it is doing today and it is reciprocal, we are doing the same in India," President Trump said. "PM Modi, I look forward to working with you to make our nations more prosperous than ever before... You have never had a better friend in the White House than President Donald Trump," he added.
