Jobs and factories will come roaring back into our country, and you see it happening already. We will supercharge our domestic industrial base. We will pry open foreign markets and break down foreign trade barriers. And ultimately, more production at home will mean stronger competition and lower prices for consumers. This will be indeed the golden age of America. It's coming back and we're going to come back very strongly.

I thought that people were jumping a little bit out of line [on tariffs]. They were getting yippy. You know, they were getting a little bit yippy, a little bit afraid.... Over the last few days it looked pretty glum... You have to be flexible. You have to be able to show a little flexibility. And I'm able to do that.

For decades, our country has been looted, pillaged, raped and plundered by nations near and far, both friend and foe alike.

We will charge them approximately half of what they are and have been charging us.

We're going to be charging [China with] a discounted reciprocal tariff of 34 percent.
