Trump calculates US loss from unfair trade tariffs

The United States lost $817 billion due to unfair trade tariffs last year, US President Donald Trump said.

"Every time I see a weak politician asking to stop Trade talks or the use of Tariffs to counter unfair Tariffs, I wonder, what can they be thinking? Are we just going to continue and let our farmers and country get ripped off?" Trump posted on his Twitter page.

"Lost $817 Billion on Trade last year. No weakness!" he added.
