President Donald Trump is claiming that tariffs on imported goods are bringing in billions of dollars a day — $2 billion to be exact.

President Donald Trump has repeatedly touted what he calls the return of manufacturing to the United States, hailing companies that have vowed to pour large amounts of money into making everything from computer chips to cars in America.

President Trump said he is in contact with the “highest levels” of the Chinese government about a potential deal to reduce tariffs, appearing to confirm that he is talking to Chinese President Xi Jinping himself.
