Bill Clinton on Trump and tariffs:


> I've known President Trump a long time. We used to have quite a friendly relationship 24 years ago. We'd play golf.
> 
> He kept saying, "We're the biggest, strongest, richest country in the world. Why don't we just put a bunch of tariffs on everybody else and stop paying taxes altogether?"
> 
> I said, "Well, because, Don" — he was Donald then, not Mr. President — "because these people don't just eat the tariffs. They just charge the people who buy the stuff, whatever it is. So we pay the tariffs."
> 
> And he, just like now, didn't hear what he didn't want to hear.
