Trump's April tariff revenue topped $17 billion

 
US President Donald Trump's tariffs became very real for importers last month as the government collected more than $17.4 billion in customs and certain excise taxes during April. 
 
That was nearly double March's haul of $9.6 billion, dwarfing the smaller spikes in revenue seen during Trump's first term. 
 
All told, the duties have deposited more than $70 billion into government coffers since January 1.
