YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries told reporters during a news conference that President Donald Trump's tariffs were a tax on the American people. "The Trump tariffs, which are a tax on the American people, are so reckless, so un-strategic, so lacking in any sophistication, that the only conclusion that one can draw is that Donald Trump and Republicans are intentionally tanking the economy."
