US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Tuesday that the US has received about 100 billion US dollars in tariff revenue so far this year, and it is expected that by the end of the year, this figure may increase to more than 300 billion US dollars. Bessent said at the White House cabinet meeting that the main collection of Trump's new tariffs only began in the second quarter, “so we can expect that by the end of this year, this figure may well exceed 300 billion US dollars.” Bessent added that the US Congressional Budget Office estimates that total tariff revenue will reach about 2.8 trillion US dollars in the next 10 years. “We think this figure may be low.”
