President Trump’s America First Trade Policies in Action – The White House

This morning, key officials from the Trump Administration graced the Sunday talk shows to elaborate on President Donald J. Trump’s reciprocal tariffs, the ongoing negotiations, and the tangible benefits they’ve purportedly brought to American workers and businesses.

Here’s what you might have missed:

Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick on This Week

  • On tariffs for certain electronics: “These products will fall under the semiconductor sectoral tariffs we are introducing … It’s crucial that we produce these items domestically.”
  • On the constitutionality of tariffs: “Congress has empowered the president to safeguard our national security … If we continue to run massive trade deficits and compromise our interests, we risk becoming subservient to global labor markets.”
  • On expanding market access: “Our farmers are on the brink of accessing international markets. They’ve been denied the chance to sell corn in India, but as they expand their reach, we can expect prices to decrease.”

Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing Peter Navarro on Meet the Press

  • On tariffs negotiations: “This is unfolding just as we anticipated … Our strategy involves charging countries equivalent to what they charge us, fully aware that many will seek negotiations.”
  • On semiconductor tariffs: “Our policy is firm: no exemptions, no exclusions … Secretary Lutnick is currently investigating the semiconductor supply chain to enhance stability and resilience.”
  • On inflation: “Recent data indicates a positive trend in inflation — both the Producer Price Index and Consumer Price Index have recorded their lowest figures since fall of 2023.”

National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett on State of the Union

  • On China: “After China joined the WTO, real wages declined over 15 years — wages fell faster than prices, contrary to the belief that cheap imports would revitalize America; the reality was quite the opposite.”

U.S. Trade Representative Ambassador Jamieson Greer on Face the Nation

  • On trade deal negotiations: “I aim to secure substantial agreements within 90 days — I’m optimistic we’ll reach deals with several countries shortly.”
  • On the response to reciprocal tariffs: “President Trump is implementing a global initiative to reshore American manufacturing and rectify the trade deficit. This issue is not just domestic; it’s a global concern. Our current predicament primarily stems from China’s retaliatory actions.”
  • On tariffs exemptions: “For national security tariffs, an investigation is a prerequisite for imposing them … that’s why there aren’t any tariffs in place at the moment — we must conduct thorough investigations first.”

Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins on Fox News Sunday

  • On trade: “For years, the treatment of our farmers and ranchers has been nothing short of shocking. We have endured a tariff regime imposed by other nations … The president is diligently working to amend this.”
  • On ethanol production: “Ethanol plays a vital role in our strategy for energy independence. President Trump has been steadfast in his support for this initiative.”

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Sunday Morning Futures

  • On the Panama Canal: “President Trump highlighted in his State of the Union that China wields excessive influence over the Panama Canal, and it’s our mission to reclaim that control … We cannot allow foreign influence to dominate our own territory.”
  • On Iran: “[President Trump is] resolute that Iran must not acquire a nuclear weapon … He’s equally serious about pursuing alternative options should negotiations falter.”

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller on Sunday Morning Futures

  • On tariffs: “When the president announced his reciprocal tariffs, it was explicitly stated that semiconductors, critical to our national security, would be addressed through a distinct Commerce authority known as Section 232. This was always intended, given their importance to our security framework. There will be no exemptions.”
  • On President Trump’s historic actions: “History will note that the recent actions taken by President Trump marked the beginning of a movement to safeguard the West from total economic subjugation by foreign powers.”
