White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller was on “Sunday Morning Futures” and discussed President Trump’s America first approach to trade deals.

“You were targeting specific items from day one. Walk us through these exemptions,” Bartiromo asked regarding tariff exemptions on certain items.

“This is just another great example of how President Trump had a detailed plan from the beginning that’s being executed exactly as directed,” Miller said.

“When the President issued his reciprocal tariffs, our government at the time specifically said that chips and semiconductors, which are critical components of our national security, are gonna be dealt with through a separate commerce authority, known as a 232,” Miller explained.

“This is a sophisticated, elegant, detailed plan to deal with Chinese economic aggression against the United States,” Miller continued.

Bartiromo also asked Miller to explain President Trump’s 90-day period of negotiation on trade.

“What can you tell us about this 90-day period where President Trump is negotiating with our allies on trade?” Bartiromo asked.

“As President Trump has said, he has dispatched his team, Scott Bessent, Howard Lutnick, Jamison Greer, to have conversations with these countries and to explain to them, their egregious trade abuses, how they have manipulated their currencies, how they have illegally subsidized their industries and how they have ballooned the trade deficit,” Miller said.

“The 90-day pause before the tariff rates snap back, gives us an opportunity to have that conversation with each of these countries,” Miller continued.

Miller also called out China’s distortion of the world-wide trading system.

“China has distorted the entire global trading system through decades of intellectual property theft, trademark theft, copyright theft, industrial espionage, currency manipulation, illegal subsidization of critical industries,” Miller declared.

“It took so long for us to finally have a President, Donald Trump, who will protect and defend America from these abuses, while every other President, Democrat and Republican, allowed China to plunder us,” Miller continued.

“Why is it that we allow them to roll over America and undermine this great country every day?” Bartiromo asked.

“They have done it for decades. It is shameful that core elements of our industrial base, our medical base, our manufacturing base, our pharmaceutical base, our defense base, our electronic components, our chips, our critical minerals, that all of the things that power a country. We have allowed those supply chains to be centered in China,” Miller warned.
