Donald Trump's says he'll place tariffs on foreign goods bought here, when the item is also made here by a native company. That means the consumer will ultimately pay the tariff, not the foreign manufacturer.
That means ultimately, in such instances the end consumer will likely be of the middle class or below it. He acts as if he is unaware of the heavier burden this tariff places on the ordinary citizens. But then he adds, (paraphrased) "I'll have the debt paid off very soon."
He seems to be targeting the poorer than the wealthy to be his main source for reducing the debt his administration through its tax relief in his former presidency amassed when he was President.
You get it? He's acting as if he doesn't know who pays this tariff; but he does indeed!
My opinion.
