During a Republican donor dinner on April 9, 2025, former U.S. President Donald Trump asserted that foreign leaders are desperately seeking trade deals to escape new U.S. tariffs. Trump said, “These countries are calling us up, kissing my a**,” and mocked their appeals with, “Please, sir, make a deal. I’ll do anything.” He ridiculed the idea of letting Congress handle trade, boasting about his own negotiating prowess. The remarks underscore Trump’s combative stance on international trade and his continued influence over U.S. foreign economic policy. (PC: India Today)
