10:39Now PlayingTrump's favorite shoemaker just went on record calling his economic agenda a "debacle." Florsheim — the 132-year-old American brand Trump wears to the State of the Union and gifts to his Cabinet — has paid $21 million in surprise tariffs, sued the administration in federal court, won the case, and gotten back $1.5 million of the $35.5 billion the federal government owes American importers nationally.
Florsheim is a real company, run by the fifth-generation great-great-grandson of the founder, being taxed into financial purgatory by the President.
