Former President Donald Trump said on 14 August that federal officials recently “found” $29 billion attributed to tariff collections, claiming overall levy receipts amount to “billions and even trillions of dollars” flowing into the United States from around the world. Independent fact-checkers quickly challenged the assertion, noting that publicly available government data do not support the figures cited by Trump.
President Trump: "Last week, they found $29 billion, and they couldn't figure out where it came from. I said, check the tariff shelf. And they said, 'How did you know that's where it came from?'" https://t.co/DdOYpuC8md
