The US leader has floated the idea of paying a “tariff dividend” to almost all Americans from revenue collected by his administration from the tariffs applied on leading global economies, in an effort to bolster public support amid uncertainty over whether the Supreme Court will limit his use of tariffs.
On Sunday, Trump wrote on social media: “People that are against Tariffs are fools!,” adding that the country is “taking in trillions of dollars and will soon begin paying down our enormous debt, $37 trillion.”
