Only Trump has courage to say enough is enough: US State Department on tariffs
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: US President Donald Trump's actions on tariffs have illustrated to the country's enemies and allies that the US should not be taken for granted, US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce said on Tuesday (local time). Bruce said that only Trump has the vision and courage to say enough is enough, and the US has the great benefit of having the "world's best dealmaker" as President.
While addressing a press briefing on Tuesday (local time), Trump's "indefatigable effort" on tariffs to make US great again involves the herculean effort to change the trading trajectory of the country, which she said has been placed under a "crushing burden of a web of unfair trade arrangements, resulting in American taxpayers being ripped off every single day."
Tammy Bruce said, "On the tariffs, the coverage of President Trump's indefatigable effort to make this country great again involves the herculean effort to change the trading trajectory of this country, which has been placed under a crushing burden of a web of unfair trade arrangements, resulting in American taxpayers being ripped off every single day. Only President Trump has the vision and the courage to say enough is enough."
"The United States of America has the great benefit of having the world's best dealmaker as President. His actions on tariffs have illustrated to our enemies and allies alike that the United States is a nation that should not be taken for granted, and whose fortunes are directly connected to the success of every other nation on this planet. Through this process, Americans and people of the world over have been reminded about how America has been taken advantage of, and that courtesy of President Trump we have a way to fix the damage done to this nation and the world by the global left," Bruce added.
Bruce noted that more than 130 nations came forward to renegotiate their trade relationship with the United States, demonstrating how Trump not only reset the trade environment but also reminded the world that respect matters.
