Trump says he can't guarantee tariffs won't raise US prices and won't rule out revenge prosecutions

Summary

Trump acknowledged he cannot guarantee that tariffs on trade partners like Mexico and Canada won’t raise prices for U.S. consumers, despite his earlier promises to curb inflation.

He plans swift actions on immigration, including ending birthright citizenship via executive order and implementing mass deportations.

Trump also suggested possible legal action against political opponents, including pardoning Jan. 6 rioters, while claiming no interest in revenge.

He expressed willingness to negotiate protections for Dreamers with Congress but maintained a hardline stance on family deportations.

His comments highlight a mix of contradictory statements.
