(CNBC) — Former President Donald Trump stood by his idea to end income taxes and substitute them with tariffs in a Friday interview with Joe Rogan, the host of one of the most widely listened to podcasts in the world.
“Did you just float out the idea of getting rid of income taxes and replacing it with tariffs?” Rogan asked the Republican presidential nominee during their three-hour interview. “We’re serious about that?”
“Yeah, sure, but why not?” Trump responded.
