We're in a beautiful position for the next 90 days. We've got over 75 countries that are going to come in and negotiate with us. And what they're going to have to do without fail is they're going to have to lower their non-tariff barriers because those are the bigger ones than the tariff barriers. And we're going to get a great deal for America and a great deal for the world.

the economist tools, because it's based on concepts like export and import demand elasticities, currency adjustments, and things like that. But here's the analytical issue we're trying to do under the principle that the president wants to charge those countries what they charge us. As you pointed out,

Vietnam has a non-tariff, applied tariff rate that's much larger than ours, but doesn't come near the tariff we've charged them. So the question is, how do you value the following, Phil? So let me count the ways. You've got to value currency manipulation.

You've got to value the VAT tax distortions, dumping, export subsidies, technical barriers to trade, agricultural barriers to trade, quotas, bans, counterfeiting, intellectual property theft, and all of that. So here's the punchline.

If you look at the trade deficit, which every country runs from us, the first thing economists should tell you, ask the next one you have on your show, should the U.S. have chronic and sustained trade deficits? According to economic theory, they should not. So what the trade deficit does for any given country, it's the sum of all cheating. It's the sum of all unfair trade practices.

And in a national emergency where the trade deficit itself is the national emergency and security threat because it takes our factories, our jobs, and transfers wealth abroad, the reciprocal tariff is that which...

Ep. 2157 - Democrats To SHUT DOWN The Government?
So this is where we're going. We're going to a world just like Reagan went from his inauguration to the middle of his term, where it was the Reagan mural. This is going to be the Trump golden age of prosperity miracle. And it's much bigger than Ronald Reagan ever dreamed of or imagined. And it's going to be that much better.

Ep. 2174 - WHAT COMES NEXT?! Trump’s Tariff War Continues…
I mean, look, Elon, look, Elon, when he's in his doge lane, is great. But we understand what's going on here. We just have to understand. Elon sells cars. And he's in Texas assembling cars. that have big parts of that car from Mexico, China. The batteries come from Japan or China. The electronics come from Taiwan. And he's simply protecting his own interests as any business person would do.

Ep. 2169 - BREAKING: Le Pen BANNED?!?
We're gonna provide tax benefits, tax credits to the people who buy American cars. This is a genius thing that President Trump promised on the campaign trail. So that's gonna happen. In addition, the other tariffs are gonna raise about $600 billion a year.

Ep. 2169 - BREAKING: Le Pen BANNED?!?
The message is that tariffs are tax cuts. Tariffs are jobs. Tariffs are national security. Tariffs are great for America. Tariffs will make America great again.

Ep. 2173 - FALLOUT: Stock Market Drops, Trump Pushes On
This is not a negotiation, Jesse. This is a national emergency associated with chronic and massive trade deficits that are brought about by higher tariffs and higher non-tariff barriers that take our jobs, that take our factories, that lead to massive trade deficits that result in massive transfers of wealth into foreign hands that jeopardize our manufacturing base and defense industrial base.

The People Voted for Tariffs, And Here's Why
Now, there was a reason, Jesse, a reason why tariffs didn't cause a whiff of inflation during the first term. We did historic tariffs on China. We had steel and aluminum tariffs. We had solar. We had dishwasher. We had these beautiful tariffs bringing in billions of dollars. We had price stability and growth. And I buried the lead, Jesse.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The People Voted for Tariffs, And Here's Why
We are going to get the best tax cut in history paid for in large part by tariff revenues from around the world, taken, Jesse, from the people who've been cheating us around the world with higher tariffs and higher non-tariff barriers. It's a beautiful, bullish scenario. We're bridging from Bidenomics to the bullishness of Trumponomics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The People Voted for Tariffs, And Here's Why
We got the 3D, three-dimensional war on inflation, right? It's drill, baby, drill. Think about just going from $80 barrel oil down to 50. Almost solved the whole thing right there. But then you got deregulation and you got the Doge effect, which is basically taking out waste, fraud, and abuse, reducing our government debt. What does that do?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The People Voted for Tariffs, And Here's Why
That reduces, Jesse, mortgage rates and interest rates, which helps stimulate the home market and allows consumers not to have that overhang of debt.

Trump Escalates China Trade War, Fox News Ignores Market Slide | Mallory McMorrow
Elon's a car manufacturer, but he's not a car manufacturer. He's a car assembler. If you go to his Texas plant, a good part of the engines that he gets, which in the EV case is the batteries come from Japan and come from China. The electronics come from Taiwan. And he wants the cheap foreign parts, and we understand that. But we want him home.

Canadian MP Destroys Trump at Press Conference
And the president will not tolerate that anymore. So I would just, I watched a conference yesterday with Mr. Trudeau. He's calling the president dumb. He's calling him Donald instead of respectfully the president. And we're all talking trade war. It's not about that.

Here, play this clip. But I don't want to contribute to that. What I want to say to every world leader who gets up in arms when all we're asking for is fairness and to have them stop killing our people is, please, listen to us. Canada could do a lot more. Canada has been taken over, Brett, by Mexican cartels. They bring up these pill presses.

If those hostages aren't back, I don't want to hurt your negotiation. If they're not back by the time I get into office, all hell will break out in the Middle East. And it will not be good for Hamas. And it will not be good, frankly, for anyone. All hell will break out. I don't have to say anymore, but that's what it is.

As far as I'm concerned, if all of the hostages aren't returned by Saturday at 12 o'clock, I think it's an appropriate time. I would say cancel it and all bets are off and let hell break out. I'd say they ought to be returned by 12 o'clock on Saturday. And if they're not returned, all of them, not in drips and drabs, not two and one and three and four and two.

I mean, the one guy was laughing when a hostage, he thought his family was alive, found out the family was dead, and his captor, so to speak, his captor started laughing because he thought it was so funny. You know, this is a different group of people. No, I would say Saturday at 12, we want them all back. I'm speaking for myself. Israel can override it.
