He inherited inflation at 3%, as I said.

It had come way, way down.

It did go down a bit more in the early Trump years, but then it went right back up to 3%.

So inflation, in fact, has not decreased at all under Trump, and it's certainly not stopped in its tracks.

All right.

And what do we have now, Steve?

Now we have tariffs.

So let's talk about that.

Trump said this.

He said, we're going to give back these refunds.

We're going to give people a nice dividend.

You won't even have income tax to pay because the money we're taking in is so great.

What are the facts?

The facts are that they collected $80 billion of tariff revenue in the previous fiscal year.

This would be before Trump, very early into Trump.

And then in the current year, which started in January, $259 billion of tariff revenue.

But look at what the size of income tax revenues are.

$2.5 trillion of income tax revenue.

There's no way you can replace that with that.

So that's ridiculous.
