Psaki: Tariffs are a tool of Trump's corruption at taxpayers' expense
from The Briefing with Jen Psaki · host Jen Psaki, Gov. JB Pritzker, Sen. Elizabeth Warren
Jen Psaki points to examples of Donald Trump manipulating tariffs against other countries for reasons that have nothing to do with economics and everything to do with his own personal enrichment or petty grievances. And while Trump abuses his power in order to serve himself, American taxpayers foot the bill by paying for the consequences of Trump's tariffs. Illinois Governor JB Pritzker discusses how Americans can get their money back after footing the bill for Donald Trump's unconstitutional tariffs. Jen Psaki looks at the role tariffs have played in Donald Trump's quest to acquire and assert power, and points out a familiar pattern in Trump's behavior at a press conference after the Supreme Court rules his tariff scheme is yet another violation of the Constitution. Senator Elizabeth Warren talks with Jen Psaki about what comes next now that the Supreme Court has pulled the plug on Trump's tariff scheme.
