| 0:00.0 | Well, howdy there, Internet people, it spell again. |
| 0:05.0 | So today, we're going to talk about Trump's tariff refund and MTG calling out his failure. |
| 0:14.0 | Trump's first major tariff scheme failed miserably, and now the U.S. is on the hook for more than $160 billion in refunds, |
| 0:24.4 | plus interest. That won't be a small amount. The Trump administration opened a portal |

| 1:42.2 | and the refunds don't address that. They actually provide |
| 1:46.8 | a boost to the companies who pass the unlawful Trump-imposed tax on to the average American |
| 1:53.4 | and collected money there. And then the companies will get a refund for the additional costs that the American consumer already paid. |
