Trump defends his proposal for a 10% tariff on imports from countries like China, India, and others. He argues that it would bring international trade back to the United States and save industries, such as steel, that have been negatively impacted by foreign competition. Trump believes that the tariffs would also give the US political power in dealing with other countries, as they would be reluctant to impose retaliatory tariffs or face the loss of American business. He cites examples of companies like Apple and Harley-Davidson, which have built factories in the US in response to tariffs, and argues that tariffs are a powerful tool in preventing wars. Trump asserts that without tariffs, the US has lost an opportunity to leverage its economic influence.

President Donald Trump expresses his disagreement with the perception that there is little room for change in handling entitlements such as Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. He argues that there are numerous ways to cut spending and improve management in these areas. Trump also touches upon the country’s debt, which he believes is unsustainable, and the negative impact of inflation on the middle class. He recalls his efforts to reduce debt and boost the economy during his presidency, including increasing oil and gas production and stocking up on supplies for potential crises.
