49% : While Trump frequently boasted about bringing in "billions of dollars from China" through his tariffs, those billions were actually paid by U.S. importers to the government.
46% : Trump this year has floated the idea of more aggressive tariffs, including a 60% tariff on all Chinese imports and a 10-20% tariff on goods from other countries.
37% : Trump has long made them his top economic talking point, claiming that they would bring manufacturing back to the U.S. He has doubled down on tariffs this campaign, falsely arguing that they would help bring down prices for consumers.
