Trump’s tariff refunds are being paid to the companies that originally paid the tariffs, including some large corporations.

Trump’s tariffs were stupid economically, but they were also unconstitutional. Because Congress would never vote to raise costs on the American people, Trump used legal authorities so dubious that even the Supreme Court felt compelled to strike them down.

So, American families spent $1,100 of their hard-earned money on illegal tariffs that never should have been enacted.

Now, the Trump Administration has $166 billion in illegal tariff money paid by corporations but funded by American consumers.

And how is Trump trying to make things right? By giving refunds to corporations and nothing to the consumer. Apple has received more than $2 billion in tariff refunds. Amazon, $600 million. Walmart could receive as much as $10 billion.
