President Donald Trump has boasted in the past of his multiple tariffs imposed on solar panels, washing machines, steel, aluminum, and more—referring to himself as a "Tariff Man."

Despite the financial burdens of tariffs falling on American consumers and citizens, he's indicated in the past a belief that tariffs are paid by the country on which they're imposed.

He's since imposed tariffs on billions of Chinese goods for use as bargaining chips in a trade deal that has yet to be finalized.
