Donald Trump made bizarre claims after being pressed by Fox News about his economic policy proposals.
The former president said his plan to impose tariffs on foreign goods will spur economic growth and combat inflation – which is overall up 19.9% under the Biden administration – without imposing tariffs on citizens after being pressed by Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo.
However, several economists, including The Committee for a Responsible Budget, have said his plans would increase the debt by $7.4 trillion, which they say is more than Kamala Harris’ plan would.
“If I do this, you’re gonna have car companies coming back to the country,” he told Fox News.
Trump also claimed citizens would not absorb the costs if he imposed foreign tariffs despite pushback from economists.
