President Donald Trump held a lengthy press conference in the briefing room to celebrate some important Supreme Court victories, but in his typical fashion, the question-and-answerTrump Makes Jaw-Dropping Announcement After Supreme Court Victory portion delved into a myriad of other topics.
Among those topics was tariffs and how, he says, the United States has made billions of dollars on them.
“Mr. President, a leading global economist just did a one-eighty and says your tariff plan, you may have outsmarted everybody with it. What is your message?” a reporter said to the president.
“I love this. I love this question. This is the favorite. This is the best question I’ve ever been asked because I’ve been going through abuse for years on this. Because, as you know, we’re taking in hundreds of billions of dollars, no inflation whatsoever,” he said before he was pressed further on the matter.
