But now it's my honor to address you for the first time as your 47th president of the United States. We're rescuing the Americans whose jobs have been stolen, whose wages have been robbed, and whose way of life has been absolutely destroyed.
And under the Trump administration, our country will not be turned into a dumping ground. We're not going to do it. We're going to have a great country again. It's going to happen soon. A lot sooner than you think. And we're going to have so much money coming in from tariffs. Oh, nobody's ever done like I've done on China. Nobody ever let people know what was happening with respect to China. And I happen to like President Xi, and I have tremendous respect for the people of China, love the people of China.
But we've been treated very unfairly by China and many other countries. And we're not being unfairly treated anymore. Well, weeks ago, I imposed a 10 percent tariff on all goods coming from China because of the fact that they're sending fentanyl into our country. Through Mexico, by the way. I'm not happy with Mexico or I'm not happy with Canada either.
I impose 25% tariffs on all foreign steel and aluminum, and I will soon impose reciprocal tariffs on any country that charges us. And by the way, reciprocal means they charge us, we charge them. Same thing. So nobody can be upset, right? But we have countries charging us 200%, and we charge them nothing. They charge us, we charge them. Our country's going to become rich again, very rich. I always say it's my favorite word in the dictionary.
