Trump’s America First tariff deals are in, with 40 countries making deals grotesquely in America’s favor.

In a compelling video shared above by economist Peter St Onge (@profstonge), the reality of President Donald Trump’s America First tariff deals is crystal clear: 40 countries are lining up to strike agreements grotesquely tilted in America’s favor. As St Onge points out, for decades, our $27 trillion economy groveled like a beggar to nations the size of Delaware, but now they’re paying up for access to our markets. This isn’t just rhetoric—it’s the fulfillment of Trump’s long-predicted tariff revolution, now generating billions monthly in revenue, bolstering our economy, and proving liberal doomsayers dead wrong.
St Onge’s post, viewed over 180,000 times, captures the essence: Trump’s tariffs are reshaping global trade, forcing adversaries to the table while flooding U.S. coffers with cash that funds tax relief and national security.Trump’s tariff program, relaunched with vigor in his second term, is a masterstroke of economic nationalism that conservatives have championed since day one. Back in 2016, Trump warned that unfair trade deals were bleeding America dry, promising tariffs would level the playing field and bring in massive revenues. Critics from the left and establishment RINOs scoffed, predicting economic Armageddon—inflation spikes, job losses, and retaliatory wars. Fast-forward to August 2025, and the numbers tell a different story: July alone saw a record $28-29 billion in tariff collections, the highest monthly haul ever, pushing fiscal year-to-date revenues past $151 billion—an 86% surge over last year.

TRUMP EXEMPTS GOLD FROM TARIFFS Last week, confusion over tariffs sent gold prices to a record $3,534. Traders feared gold tariffs would slam the bullion market. But today, Trump ended the panic with 4 words: “Gold will not be Tariffed!”
🚨 TRUMP EXEMPTS GOLD FROM TARIFFS
Last week, confusion over tariffs sent gold prices to a record $3,534.
Traders feared gold tariffs would slam the bullion market.
But today, Trump ended the panic with 4 words:
“Gold will not be Tariffed!”— Rod D. Martin (@RodDMartin) August 11, 2025
As Fox Business’ Charles Payne enthused on “Fox & Friends,” these tariffs are set to generate trillions, offsetting tax cuts and proving Trump’s genius. This windfall isn’t accidental—it’s the direct result of Trump’s bold strategy. Starting with a 10-15% baseline on imports, escalating to 100-150% on key sectors like semiconductors and pharmaceuticals, the program targets dumpers like China while exempting allies who play fair. In July, revenues smashed records at $28 billion, with projections hitting $300 billion for 2025—enough to fund massive tax rebates for middle- and low-income Americans. Breitbart reports this surge has already created a surprise budget surplus, cutting deficits by an estimated $2.8 trillion over the decade per the CBO. Trump’s reciprocal tariffs—mirroring what others charge us—have forced concessions, like Europe’s $750 billion commitment to U.S. energy and Japan’s $550 billion investment pledge.
Conservatives knew this would work because Trump delivered before. In his first term, tariffs on China alone raked in $80 billion, protecting steel jobs and pressuring Beijing. Now, amplified, they’re a revenue juggernaut. Newsmax highlights how countries, realizing Trump isn’t bluffing, are rushing to negotiate—40 deals inked, with more coming. Senator Jon Husted told Newsmax these tariffs are bringing auto manufacturing home, reversing Biden’s disastrous open borders and weak trade policies that gutted industries. The Epoch Times notes over $150 billion collected in six months, reshaping foreign policy through “tariff diplomacy.” Even prominent Democrats, like Senator John Fedman on Fox News, admit Trump’s trade war is “going well,” with Europe caving on concessions. The left’s doomsday predictions? Utterly debunked. Fox News op-eds mock how liberals warned of recession, yet since February 2025, we’ve added 515,000 jobs despite government shrinkage.
Liz Peek on Fox celebrates Trump’s EU deal as “rocket fuel” for growth, with 15% tariffs yielding billions without inflation spikes. Breitbart’s analysis shows stocks soaring under Trump’s policies, with tariffs driving investment home. Newsmax’s Josh Hammer grades Trump’s first six months an A, with tariffs fueling economic boom and Treasury gains. Contrast this with Biden’s era: deficits ballooned, China dominated, and revenues stagnated. Trump’s tariffs flip the script, using foreign cash to cut income taxes—potentially eliminating them for under $200K earners. On X, conservatives amplify the success. @tonykatz praises Trump’s pick of EJ Antoni to run BLS, noting tariffs counter Fed giveaways to foreigners. @DailyNoahNews highlights Trump’s 90-day China extension as leverage, protecting 500,000 jobs. @dogeai_gov details how tariffs slashed deficits by billions, proving America First wins. Even critics like @nbarnhart11 admit revenues are pouring in, though they quibble semantics. This revenue bonanza enables bold moves: rebates for taxpayers, as Trump floats dividends from the haul.
Exemptions for smartphones and electronics keep prices stable while luring production home. Newsmax reports tariffs could rebuild manufacturing, generating $70 billion yearly Trump’s China truce extensions—now at 90 days—keep pressure on, with Commerce Secretary Lutnick predicting $50 billion monthly soon. Skeptics whine about consumer costs, but reality bites back: importers absorb much, and substitution booms domestic output. As St Onge notes, foreigners ultimately pay via concessions. Toyota’s $9.5 billion hit? That’s incentive to build here. Trump’s tariffs aren’t taxes—they’re tolls on cheaters, funding our revival. In sum, Trump’s program vindicates conservatives: billions monthly, jobs protected, enemies humbled. As X user @heart_racheal posts, foreign tariffs on U.S. goods hit $150 billion since inception, but we’re winning big. Liberals’ hysteria falls flat—America thrives under Trump. This is the golden age we predicted.
