“I have just concluded a telephone conversation with the President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, which was very successful in that, more and more, we are getting to know and understand each other. The complexities of a Deal with Mexico are somewhat different than other Nations because of both the problems, and assets, of the Border. We have agreed to extend, for a 90 Day period, the exact same Deal as we had for the last short period of time, namely, that Mexico will continue to pay a 25% Fentanyl Tariff, 25% Tariff on Cars, and 50% Tariff on Steel, Aluminum, and Copper. Additionally, Mexico has agreed to immediately terminate its Non Tariff Trade Barriers, of which there were many. We will be talking to Mexico over the next 90 Days with the goal of signing a Trade Deal somewhere within the 90 Day period of time, or longer. Present at the meeting were Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, United States Trade Representative and Ambassador Jamieson Greer, Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, and United States Homeland Security Advisor, Stephen Miller. There will be continued cooperation on the Border as it relates to all aspects of Security, including Drugs, Drug Distribution, and Illegal Immigration into the United States. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” @realDonaldTrump

“To all of my great lawyers who have fought so hard to save our Country, good luck in Americas big case today.

“Tariffs are making America GREAT & RICH Again. They were successfully used against the USA for decades and, coupled with really dumb, pathetic, and crooked politicians, were having a devastating impact on the future, and even the survival, of our country. Now the tide has completely turned, and America has successfully countered this onslaught of Tariffs used against it. ONE YEAR AGO, AMERICA WAS A DEAD COUNTRY, NOW IT IS THE HOTTESTCOUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The social media claim that tariffs have made America “great” and “the hottest country anywhere in the world” is not supported by economic evidence. While certain sectors, like capital goods exports and parts of agriculture, experienced temporary gains, overall indicators such as GDP growth, employment, and trade balances show mixed or negative results.

“I dont care what India does with Russia. They can take their dead economies down together, for all I care. We have done very little business with India, their Tariffs are too high, among the highest in the World. Likewise, Russia and the USA do almost no business together. Lets keep it that way, and tell Medvedev, the failed former President of Russia, who thinks hes still President, to watch his words. Hes entering very dangerous territory!” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The TruthSocial post makes several sweeping assertions about U.S.-India and U.S.-Russia trade, Indian tariffs, and Dmitry Medvedev’s current status. The claim that the U.S. does “very little business with India” is contradicted by official data showing $131.84 billion in annual trade. While it is true India’s average tariff rate is higher than that
