You have a higher gas -- it's a very inexpensive price to pay for what we've done. Remember that. It's a little more. Frankly, even if it was a lot more

Trump hates capitalism, tbh

We would have the same amount of money -- not a dollar more
"If we stopped trading with every country that we have a deficit with -- which is most of them, and which would be very easy to do -- we would make at least $1.5 trillion a year."
