Donald Trump gets to make a deal.
Donald Trump is the kingmaker.
He decides who's up and who's down.
The problem is it's the American people who are paying for this.
It's America's small businesses that are paying for this.
And as you rightly said just a few minutes ago, the estimates are somewhere between, last year cost between $1,000 and $2,000 for every American family.
That's money that the Supreme Court has said was stupid.
stolen from the American people.
And that's money that Donald Trump and the Trump administration needs to give back to those people.
Let's start with the part that has me really worried, and that is Donald Trump just keeps it all and doesn't give money back to anybody.
Second one is giant corporations come in, and because they have lawyers, they go into court, they say it's illegal for him to keep that money.
We can show the receipts on what was paid on tariffs, give the money back to us, and then they keep it.
In neither of those cases do the people who really paid, American families, actually get the money back.
So, here's the deal.
Donald Trump's job today should have been both to say, okay, I get it, and he will now follow the law, and we got to work out a way to get this money back into the hands of the people it was taken from.
That should be the job of his Secretary of the Treasury.
Instead, Scott Besson, that Treasury Secretary, gets interviewed, and he smirks.
while he says, oh, I don't think the American people are ever going to see that.
You know, damn it, this is your job, Scott Besant.
It is your job to find the way to get that money back into the hands of the American people from whom it has been illegally stolen.
