A video of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins praising Trump’s new tariffs while standing beside a screen showing the Dow Jones down 1,200+ points has gone viral with 1.1 million views.

Trump’s tariffs target over 180 countries, with a 10% baseline on all imports and higher rates on key partners, including China (34%) and the EU (20%).

The administration claims the policy will boost U.S. manufacturing, but analysts warn of economic risks.

Rollins also faced questions over rising egg prices and unclear tariff impacts on food imports.
