SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Anyway, it'll be the first time in decades, and this really is beginning to infuriate me. And I want to explain why I'm getting infuriated by this. We are supposed to be "the land of the free and the home of the brave." We are supposed to be a people that are brave and think out of the box. And this is driving me nuts.

America has been taken advantage of by many of our closest allies, which I will go into great detail and specificity, and we seem like a bunch of gutless, spineless cowards because finally, you got a president that actually thinks out of the box.

He is not myopic, and he is demanding a very simple principle be applied from allied countries, other countries as well, and that is free and fair trade.

We have been abused. We have been taken advantage of. We've become a sucker nation in many, many respects when it comes to the issue of tariffs, and no president has had the courage until Donald Trump, and it's paying off big time. That's another part of the equation that people refuse to even acknowledge.
