Who is paying the tariffs on China



Trump again claimed that China paid the $28 billion in tariff revenue he then distributed to farmers.
Facts First: This money wasn't from China. Study after study has found that Americans are bearing the cost of Trump's tariffs on imported Chinese products. And American importers, not Chinese exporters, make the actual tariff payments to the US government.
