EXCERPT:
LEAVITT: “In June of 1996, Nancy Pelosi spoke on the House floor. She urged her colleagues at the time to fight against the status quo trade policies that had contributed to America's trade deficit with China. In fact, Nancy Pelosi said, 'How far does China have to go? How much more repression? How big a trade deficit? How many jobs have to be lost for the American workers? How much dangerous proliferation has to exist before members of this House of Representatives will say, I will not endorse the status quo.' Those are the words of Nancy Pelosi in 1996. Well, President Trump is finally answering her call, 27 years later. Nancy Pelosi can thank President Trump today for the 104 percent retaliatory tariff that will be going into effect on China.”
