4 Senate Republicans Give Trump The Middle Finger....Senate Passes A Bill To Block Trump's 25% Tariffs On Canada

[Dr. Phosphorous]

Of course, Trump will veto this bill if it passes the House, but he is going to face a lot of Republican opposition to these tariffs. This is humiliating for Trump.

Rand Paul is 100% correct -- Tariffs are taxes. Since when do full-of-shit Repugs love taxes???

This tariff debacle is not going to end well for Trump. --

The Senate voted 51-48 Wednesday to undo President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada, delivering its first major rebuke to Trump since he returned to the White House.

Four Republicans — Sens. Mitch McConnell (Kentucky), Susan Collins (Maine), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Rand Paul (Kentucky) — defied Trump and Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-South Dakota) by voting with Democrats to invalidate a national emergency that Trump declared in February, allowing him to impose a 25 percent tariff on Canadian goods.

Trump has vowed to veto the bill, even if it made it through the Republican-controlled House.

The president accused Collins, McConnell, Murkowski and Paul of disloyalty ahead of the vote. “The Senate Bill is just a ploy of the Dems to show and expose the weakness of certain Republicans, namely these four, in that it is not going anywhere because the House will never approve it and I, as your President, will never sign it,” Trump wrote in a post published at 12:58 a.m. on his Truth Social platform.

The resolution’s supporters have described it as a way to send a message to Trump about the broad discontent with his tariff strategy, even if it has no chance of becoming law.

“We think that the economic chaos that’s being caused — markets being roiled and consumer confidence dropping and some predicting recession — together with a bipartisan vote might convince the White House” to change course, said Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Virginia), who introduced the resolution with Sens. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minnesota) and Mark R. Warner (D-Virginia).

Ouch....Well done, Mike Pence.

With these tariffs, Trump supports the largest tax increase in U.S. history. --

 

[Kondor3]

The way Trump rolls...

Sooner or later some of the more Sane and Courageous remaining Republicans will stand up on behalf of their constituents...

And then they will be made to pay-the-price...

Like what happened to Kinzinger, Cheney, etc...

 

[TheGreatSatan]

Only traitors side with democrats

Nuremberg 2.0 is near

 

[multivita-man]

OP is a spamming shill POS. Prove me wrong!

Why don't you rebut his claims.

Actually, I think tariffs are a really good debate. I can see the MAGA side and the anti-MAGA side here.

Don't react. Debate based on facts.

 

[shockedcanadian]

Ouch....Well done, Mike Pence.

America will either bring manufacturing back, balance your budget or you will become bankrupt and China will be sending missiles into Taiwan and other Western nations.

Mike Pence is an old Neo-Con who had to drop out of running for president after telling Tucker that he cared more about Ukraine than Americans. I think the quote was "that's (the American People) not my concern". Really? Running to be president but Americans are not your concern?

That ended his campaign and I'm sure the donors dried up not long after that comment.

I don't know what the answer is but Americas debt is going to require both cuts AND revenue generation via tariffs. Wealthy nations apply tariffs and we can't give China the world. So, the GOP have to figure it out.

why are Dems cheering for countries that rip off the US with unfair taxes and trading practices ...

SEIG HEIL!

Are you wearing an armband yet?

Manufacturing is not coming back. Most of the jobs no longer exist due to automation, not exported to other countries. Trump is hoaxing you.

The budget will never be balanced since Republicans and Trump outspend the Democrats. That's why Trump had the debt ceiling suspended twice the first time around and called for it to be suspended this time around before he was even sworn in.

I have no idea how the rubes have been convinced the Republicans are fiscally responsible. That is some serious willful blindness!

First, you don't even know what a Neocon is. Just because Pence did the right thing by refusing to go along with Trump's coup, you idiots smear a real patriot in favor of a traitor.

Second, your propagandists have misrepresented what Pence said. Fucker Carlson asked him about giving tanks to Ukraine. That is what Pence was referring to in his reply.

By the way, Carlson openly admitted he hopes Russia wins in Ukraine. Like Trump, he is madly in love with the mass murdering war criminal.

That ended his campaign and I'm sure the donors dried up not long after that comment.

Only an idiot thinks tariffs will help balance the budget.

That is a seriously stupid belief.

During the tariff war in the 1930s, America descended even deeper into the Depression.

Trump's tariff war is going to create the Recession of 2025.

 

[BluesLegend]

The backstabbing Dem bill is DOA in the people's House. The American people have the GOP House majority and Trump protecting them and their jobs.

Why are dems so in favor of America getting ripped off.

Progs tried to kill Christians in their homes. They sent their weaponized goons into their home and dragged them out of them. That is reality. That is Garland. And that is the willingness of men to e stormtroopers in every society ever.

democrats favorability is in the twenty percent rang.
rinos favorability is in the trash.
leftist/dem controlled media is in the dump.
You can drone on and on all you want.
The American People are not listening to you anymore.

As well as ceding large chunks of the wprld to China.

I’m sure they will get lucrative jobs as consultants, lobbyists, and whatnot, if they retire next election year rather than being primaries into irrelevance.
