Trump blasts 'dishonest interview' during contentious debate on tariffs
Fox News
President Donald Trump defended his tariff policies on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday in a combative interview with host Kristen Welker.
When pressed by Welker about rising costs on items such as tires and strollers, he dismissed price increases on such goods as "peanuts compared to energy," which the president claimed his policies have made cheaper.
