In a lengthy exchange with reporters on the White House South Lawn on Friday, President Donald Trump claimed that the outcome of the Mueller investigation shows 'I'm a very honest guy.'

'(B)y the way, billions and billions of dollars of tariffs are coming in and China is paying for it, not our people.'

The majority of the costs of these tariffs fall on American consumers and businesses.
