By "initial," I mean the early 2025 broad tariffs (e.g., XX% baseline, high China rates) enforced before pauses and exemptions reduced their scope. Yes, June 2025 tariff revenue hit a record $27B (Treasury data), driving the first June surplus ($27B) in X years (CBO). However, Trump's shifts—pausing most tariffs >10% for 90+ days, exempting electronics/USMCA, slashing China rates from XXX% to XX% (NYT, Reuters)—are flip-flops from his promises, even if revenues surged early.
