Tell me that you like in the style and policy of US President Donald Trump’s leadership, but he has words with words.
Trump’s love for transactions and a former career as a real estate tycoon is well known, and the unhappy president is often overflowing his speeches and interviews with business -related terminology. He is now turning to the sports world for inspiration, discussing the latest US trades with global trading partners.
In an interview on Tuesday with CNBC, the President compared the billions of dollars in the US – promising Europe and Japan as part of their recent trading deals with Washington – to the “signing bonus” of baseball players is usually obtained when they join new teams.
“We accept trillions of dollars,” said Trump “Squawk Box”, noting that “people love tariffs, they love trades, and they love that foreign countries no longer break us.”
“If you look at Japan, we take $ 550 billion, and it’s like a signing bonus that will receive a baseball player. He will get a little less than it … But they give a bonus for a million dollars, or $ 2 million, or $ 20 million, or everything will be given today,” he said.
“So, I got a $ 550 billion bonus for signing from Japan. This is our money. It’s our money as we like.” He also noted the European Union’s promise to invest in the US and buy US energy worth $ 750 billion.
At the end of July, the EU and the US announced a trade agreement when the agreement reduced the tariffs for imports to 15%. In addition, Washington said the EU “will buy $ 750 billion in energy and will make new $ 600 billion investments in the US, all by 2028.”
However, no other information was the opposite. When the CNBC presenter asked for more clarity on Tuesday, Trump said: “Details for $ 600 billion to invest in everything I want and all I can do everything I want to.”
Asked what would happen when the investment did not pass, Trump said: “Well, then they pay tariffs by 35%. No. They reduced their tariffs.”
Speaking anecdotally, the White House leader said representatives of other countries asked why the EU received a smaller gathering.
“And I said,” Well, because (the EU) gave me $ 600 billion. “And this gift is not a loan.
Similarly the US Trade Deal with Tokyo stated persistently This is “Japan’s $ 550 billion aimed at the United States to restore and expand major US industries.”
The White House said the funds would be aimed at “intensifying the strategic industrial base of America”, including energy infrastructure and production, semiconductor production, critical useful benefits, pharmaceutical and medical production, as well as commercial and defensive shipbuilding, as the US is looking for a reduction.
