What the evidence supports
After the first little carton of milk, United States dairy exports to Canada faced tariffs of 275% to 300%.
The USMCA guaranteed tens of thousands of metric tons of tariff-free U.S. dairy access, and exports had not reached the quota levels at which the high over-quota tariffs applied.
The United States subsidized Canada by close to $200 billion per year.
Official 2024 data put the bilateral goods-and-services trade deficit near $36 billion and the goods-only deficit near $71 billion, with no basis for a $200 billion subsidy figure.
China paid the United States hundreds of billions of dollars in first-term tariffs.
U.S. importers paid the tariffs, and research found American businesses and consumers bore most of their cost.
Before Trump, China never paid ten cents in tariffs to any United States president.
The United States collected billions annually from tariffs on Chinese imports before Trump and had imposed tariffs on Chinese goods for generations.
The tariff era from 1789 to 1913 was proportionately the wealthiest period in United States history.
Standard measures such as real per-capita output and living standards are many times higher today; fiscal surpluses do not make the historical claim true.
Biden presided over the highest inflation in United States history.
Inflation peaked at 9.1% in 2022, the highest in about 40 years but far below the historical peak of 23.7% in 1920.
There was virtually no inflation during Trump's first term.
Consumer prices rose about 8% over the four years, and year-over-year inflation was 1.4% when he left office.
Trump had already brought gasoline prices way down to well under $3 nationally.
The national average was about $3.24, higher than the roughly $3.12 average on inauguration day; sub-$3 prices were regional rather than nationwide.
