The White House is pushing back hard against media panic over President Trump’s new tariffs. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt slammed reporters for what she calls “hysterical” coverage. She says the tariffs are already working to protect American jobs and rebuild our economy.
Leavitt pointed to recent jobs numbers as proof the president’s plan is working. Over 228,000 new jobs were added last month, smashing expert predictions. Key industries like manufacturing and transportation saw big gains. The White House says this is just the start of an American comeback.
Foreign countries are scrambling to cut deals with the Trump administration, according to Leavitt. She claims nations that spent decades taking advantage of U.S. trade policies are now begging to negotiate. The press secretary says this shows Trump’s tough approach is forcing others to respect American workers.
Mainstream media outlets have focused on stock market drops and price increases. Leavitt calls this coverage dishonest and short-sighted. She argues temporary adjustments are worth rebuilding industries critical to national security like medicine, energy, and defense manufacturing.
The press secretary accused reporters of ignoring how past presidents failed America. For years, foreign tariffs blocked U.S. products while other nations got rich. Leavitt says Trump is the first leader brave enough to fight back. She vows the tariffs will stay until America gets fair trade deals.
Over $1.5 trillion in private investment has poured into U.S. factories since January, Leavitt announced. This dwarfs what the previous administration achieved. The White House says this money will create 350,000 new jobs building American goods instead of relying on China.
When asked about economic warnings, Leavitt dismissed “coastal elites” who don’t understand heartland voters. She says working families support tariffs to bring back steel mills, auto plants, and mining jobs. The press secretary claims these voters care more about paychecks than stock tickers.
Leavitt finished with a message to foreign leaders. She said Trump won’t back down, and America’s economy is too powerful to lose a trade war. The press secretary promised more factories, higher wages, and renewed national pride as the tariff plan unfolds.
