Rep. Byron Donalds: Trump Understands Other Countries Need Access To American Markets
Florida Republican Congressman Byron Donalds joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to explain how President Trump and members of his administration have been able to flip the script when it comes to negotiating trade deals with other countries.
“What the president has done quite well with his team is they said, look we’re not going to be taken advantage of anymore when it comes to trade. We are going to make sure that America is in the pole position and that people are advocating for American interests, not just here, but of course around the globe. And he’s been able to execute this in a pretty stunning fashion, actually. Usually some of these like trade deals take a year to put together, two years. He’s actually been able to get, you know, get the brass tax with these other nations. And so when you look at our economy, not only do we have a strong foundation for our economy but he’s brought inflation down. Obviously no tax on tips, overtime, social security, keeping his entire tax agenda in place has really been a boom to businesses here in the United States. Then you bring in stuff like 100% expensing for business owners when they go buy that piece of equipment, they can expense it all in year one, that’s actually going to drive more capital investment in the United States over the short term. It’s really the recipe for a booming economic strategy. And then you still have to cut regulations with the president is already doing with his team. I think it puts us in a position to be very successful. And what that really means is people will be successful in the United States. And some of the early reports are wages adjusted for inflation are actually up again, especially at the bottom end of our economic ladder means we’re closing the wealth gap as well. It’s a great recipe of success brought to us by Donald Trump.”
