US President-elect Trump: Tariffs will pay off our debt and MAKE AMERICA WEALTHY AGAIN

Source Fxstreet

US President-elect Donald Trump took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to note that "the Tariffs, and Tariffs alone, created this vast wealth for our Country. Then we switched over to Income Tax. We were never so wealthy as during this period. Tariffs will pay off our debt and MAKE AMERICA WEALTHY AGAIN!"

He also spoke about border control in his following tweets, saying "with the Biden “Open Border’s Policy” I said, many times during Rallies, and elsewhere, that Radical Islamic Terrorism, and other forms of violent crime, will become so bad in America that it will become hard to even imagine or believe. That time has come, only worse than ever imagined. Joe Biden is the WORST PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICA, A COMPLETE AND TOTAL DISASTER. What he and his group of Election Interfering “thugs” have done to our Country will not soon be forgotten! MAGA."

Market reaction

The US Dollar pays a little heed to these tweets from the Tariff man, trading 0.09% lower on the day at 109.15 against its major currency rivals.
