President Donald Trump is doubling down on his controversial tariffs program and has called on Americans to "hang tough" amid stock market turmoil over the last few days.
Trump, in a post on Truth Social Saturday morning, wrote that his plan is already working with trillions of dollars already being poured into the U.S. economy.
"We are bringing back jobs and businesses like never before. Already, more than FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS OF INVESTMENT, and rising fast! THIS IS AN ECONOMIC REVOLUTION, AND WE WILL WIN," Trump wrote.
"HANG TOUGH, it won’t be easy, but the end result will be historic," Trump wrote. "We will, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!" Trump wrote.
Trump took aim at China after the communist country clapped back to Trump’s Liberation Day tariff announcement with a reciprocal 34% tariff on U.S. imports.
"China has been hit much harder than the USA, not even close," Trump wrote. "They, and many other nations, have treated us unsustainably badly. We have been the dumb and helpless "whipping post," but not any longer."
"China played it wrong, they panicked — the one thing they cannot afford to do," Trump wrote Friday on Truth Social.
