On Sunday evening, he doubled down again, posting: "We have massive Financial Deficits with China, the European Union, and many others. The only way this problem can be cured is with TARIFFS, which are now bringing Tens of Billions of Dollars into the U.S.A.

total amount paid by working americans: $all of it
