The administration's recent imposition of tariffs on global trade is based on a misunderstanding of economic data and will negatively impact the economy.

“The reality the reality is that the numbers on his board are not the tariffs other countries are charging us. They're actually they actually represent the trade deficit between the US and those countries. Meaning we buy more stuff from them than they buy from us.”

Trump is using tariffs as a shock-and-awe tactic to force countries to the negotiating table.

“Trump sort of goes by the shock and all. throws out something crazy out there. He's like, "The whole world's getting tariffs. Bing bing ding ding ding. You're all getting these numbers." And then you see who's responds.”

Tariffs will help both bring down an inflated stock market and return manufacturing jobs to the United States.

“so I think like that the tariffs are going to solve two problems at once. It's going to bring the market down to a reasonable level and it's going to bring better jobs back to America and pull some money away from corporations”
