‘Billions flowing into US’ Trump makes Sky-high claims on Tariff gains | Netizens BUST Trump’s Lies

Donald Trump has declared that “billions are flowing into America” due to his latest round of tariff hikes, which took effect August 7. Claiming an economic windfall, Trump said the tariffs will restore jobs and cut trade deficits. However, critics and netizens quickly fact-checked the boast, noting that U.S. importers—not foreign governments—pay the tariffs. Many accused Trump of economic deception, warning that the increased duties—now as high as 41%—could spark inflation and hurt American consumers and industries. #TrumpTariffs #TariffTruth #TradeWar #EconomicReality #FactCheckTrump #TruthSocial #TariffHike #USImportTax #TrumpEconomics #ConsumerImpact #USTradeDeficit #TrumpClaimBusted #AmericanEconomy #TariffDeception #SteelCrisis #AutoIndustry #PriceHike #EconomicPolicy #JobsAndTariffs #NetizensReact #TariffMyths #MidnightPost #TaxOnAmericans #ImportDuties #TrumpLie #EconomyAlert #USPolitics #BreakingNews #TrumpSpeech #TradeShock #InflationAlert Also Read Trump Tariffs By Country: A Complete List of New and Existing Rates After US Slapped 50% On India :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-tariffs-by-country-a-complete-list-of-new-and-existing-rates-011-7822615.html?ref=DMDesc Trump-Modi, Negotiate Like Real Friends: Singer Mary Millben's Advice To India-US Amid Tariff Threat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-modi-negotiate-like-real-friends-singer-mary-millbens-advice-to-india-us-amid-tariff-threat-7821507.html?ref=DMDesc Don't Know Anything About It: Trump On India's Claims On US Buying Russian Chemicals, Fertilizers :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/dont-know-anything-about-it-trump-on-indias-claims-on-us-buying-russian-chemicals-fertilizers-7821499.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.408~ED.420~GR.124~

Zelensky accepts DEFEAT? Makes SHOCKING Remark on War with Russia as Putin-Trump talks confirmed

In a stunning shift, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signaled readiness for peace talks with Russia, saying “it’s time to end the war.” His call for a “dignified peace” comes amid a confirmed Trump-Putin summit soon and ongoing Russian strikes. Zelensky proposed bilateral or trilateral summits and urged Moscow to match Ukraine’s courage. The Kremlin, however, questions Zelensky’s legitimacy, citing expired terms and lack of elections. With Putin-Trump talks expected soon, the path to peace now faces high-stakes political hurdles. #Zelensky #UkraineRussiaWar #PeaceTalks #Putin #Trump #TrumpPutin #DignifiedPeace #UkraineConflict #ZelenskyShift #RussiaUkraine #MoscowDiplomacy #UkraineWarUpdate #KremlinStatement #BackchannelDiplomacy #BreakingNews #GlobalPolitics #UkraineCrisis #PutinTrumpTalks #WarAndPeace #EndTheWar #MartialLaw #UkrainianPolitics #UkraineLeadership #UkraineNews #RussiaStrikes #TrilateralTalks #PeaceSummit #SteveWitkoff #IllegitimateLeader #GeopoliticalShift Also Read India Ready to Pay the Price: PM Modi on US Tariff Hike on Indian Exports :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-ready-to-pay-the-price-pm-modi-on-us-tariff-hike-on-indian-exports-7822637.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Claims Canada's Recognition of Palestinian State Complicates Trade Negotiations :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-uses-canada-palestinian-state-recognition-leverage-trade-talks-011-7817517.html?ref=DMDesc Trump's Ambition as a Global Peacemaker Faces Challenges Amid Gaza Ceasefire Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-global-peacemaker-gaza-ceasefire-challenges-011-7810943.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~GR.124~
