Trump emphasized his strategy, stating that Europe has “taken advantage” of the United States for decades and that it’s now time to level the trade playing field.
The president also noted that there will be no talks with China until the $295 billion trade deficit is addressed, while Beijing responded with a 34% tariff on U.S. goods.

In a recent post on Truth Social, President Trump defended his trade strategy, declaring:
“We have massive financial deficits with China, the European Union, and many others. The only way to fix this problem is through tariffs, which are now bringing tens of billions of dollars into the U.S. […] Someday people will realize that tariffs, for the United States of America, are a very beautiful thing!”
He also celebrated the impact of his tariffs, stating:
