In 1929, [an era of prosperity] came to a very abrupt end with the Great Depression, and it would have never happened if they had stayed with the tariff policy, would have been a much different story.

ONLY THE WEAK WILL FAIL

MY POLICIES WILL NEVER CHANGE

Nations that treat us badly.

Tariffs give us great power to negotiate.

I think it’s going very well.

The tariffs give us great power to negotiate. Always have.

I think it’s going very well. It was an operation like when a patient gets operated on.

THE OPERATION IS OVER! THE PATIENT LIVED, AND IS HEALING.

This is going to lead to the construction of a lot of plants, in this case auto plants.

I didn’t want [it] to be April Fool’s Day because then nobody would believe what I said

The goal is to make global commerce more fair, spur companies to expand in the U.S. and generate federal revenue.

The markets are going to boom, the stock is going to boom, the country is going to boom.

We have been getting ripped off by other nations while working-class wages languished.

American industry will be reborn.
