Trump claims a massive new wave of manufacturing, but the truth is we have lost 75,000 manufacturing jobs since Trump started his trade war. I repeat, Trump tariffs have cost our country 75,000 manufacturing jobs. Once again, Trump lies. He just lies. He doesn't care what the facts are, if it suits his purposes, his big ego, his insatiable desire to pat himself on the back, he lies. (05:31–05:36)
