“We lost, last year, $800 billion -- with a 'b' -- $800 billion on trade. … It's $817 billion, to be exact.”

The U.S. trade deficit in 2017 was $566 billion, according to the Commerce Department. Trump gets his $800 billion number by looking only at the deficit for trade in goods ($810 billion) even though U.S. trade in services runs a substantial surplus of $244 billion. Moreover, countries do not "lose" money on trade deficits.
