Vice President Washington -JD Vans told Bright Bart News in an interview with the exclusive white house on Tuesday.
Brightbart's news sat down with JD Vance at his waistwing office on Tuesday morning. A contract to suspend customs duties. Vance said that when asked how the media, which was established for Trump's strategy, made a mistake, had a general “prejudice against disability.”
“I think Washington has such a prejudice to the case, so if something is done in the same way for the past 10 years, 20 years, or 30 years, this basic among the media and Democratic members. Unfortunately, we should leave it to some Republican members. “And President Trump said,” Well, are we stronger than 30 years ago? No, are you more wealthy than 30 years ago? No, our average life expectancy was 30 years ago. Is it really bad for the American? That applies to customs conversations.
Later, Vance compared the perspective of tariff critics, claiming that American consumers had negative results, and Trump's perspective was a tremion in the United States in a way that the president had previously overlooked or ignored. He emphasized that he is using leverage.
“If we are trying to understand this from our opposition, they say,” Well, economists and media say that tariffs are really bad, that leads to bad things for American consumers, that's bad for the international community. It leads to that, “said Vans. “President Trump says that 80 % of Mexico exports are to the United States and 78 % of Canadian exports are to the United States. Why not use it to achieve? “
“Again, I think returning to the president is biased in action, which has been a fundamental difference from the government for a long time,” said Vice President. “And of course, President Trump was biased toward action in the first semester, but I think he was surrounded by many people who were unbalanced, and he did a lot of things. I think he's going to do more in the second phase because he has really agreeing. “
Vance suggests that customs duties could be a powerful means and tool for four different purposes: diplomatic leverage, revenue, industrial re -processing, and economic relationship construction.
“My friend talks about how tariffs have actually achieved four,” Vance explained in detail. “They can be used as diplomatic leverage. That's best. No. 2: they can make money. Number 3: They can reintrol the industry. And No. 4: they are. We can help build an economic relationship, because if you are on duties to another country. And for 180 years, it is really interesting that the United States uses tariffs, sometimes selectively and sometimes more aggressively, to become the most wealthy, prosperous, and powerful country in the world. But it seems to be the past 50 years.
Vice President said in Canada that cultural commonality would not be an excuse for trade unequal.
“I have this idea, especially in Canada, so I often hear this.” Well, Canada is our best friend. “Well, in a sense, yeah, they are our best friends. They are our closest neighbors. They are very culturally similar. Americans travel to Canada. Canadians travel to the United States. But just because of a strong cultural connection with Canada doesn't mean they should not be able to use us economically, “Vans said. “Please ask yourself what kind of tariffs are applied to American agricultural exports to Canada. In the butter, it looks like 300 %. If Canadians do not work, it is not a good friend's action. It's reasonable to say, “Well, because Canadians don't respect us, we need to re -adjust this relationship.” “
“And, of course, we respect the fact that Canadians contributed to NATO and sent troops to Afghanistan, but we are not allowed because Canadians sent the army to Afghanistan 20 years ago or 15 years ago. I don't mean that I work on the economic relationship that makes Americans first.
