Summary
Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) warned of uncertainty over Trump’s sweeping new tariffs, saying, “In the long run, we’re all dead,” and slammed blind loyalty to the policy.
While Kennedy didn’t vote against Trump’s emergency tariff powers—unlike four GOP senators—he criticized the lack of clarity on economic impacts.
Trump imposed a 10% baseline tariff on all imports, falsely claiming foreign nations will bear the cost.
Kennedy told Newsmax that predictions on the tariffs’ effects are unreliable, adding anyone claiming certainty is “lying” or “selling deep stupid.”
Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.)is all about blind loyalty.
John Kennedy should be drinking Night Train Express from a paperbag behind the Circle K. He’s helped assure that the billionaires will eventually become trillionaires once they vulture all the tanked stocks. He’ll be rewarded for it, don’t you worry your pretty head about his “concerns”.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving pack of rodents.
don’t hate on rodents
Yeah but red colour go brrr4r
Dam maybe they should stop voting for it and enabling it.
It’s like they want to support a fascist coup and not be executed when it goes wrong.
If only these Republicans “speaking out” against Trump decimating the economy were members of some kind of political body with the power to stop this executive overreach…
The problem is their aren’t enough of them willing to speak up so the few that might don’t wish to lose their power, so they remain quiet convincing themselves they are doing the right thing by “living to fight another day”.
He’s pulling a McConnell (blocked impeachment consequences both times), have all the power to prevent it and do nothing, then complain when shit happens because of you to try to shift the blame.
If only…
I was fine with the rape and the fraud and the endless lies and the misogyny and the racism and the homophobia and the transphobia and the corruption and the police brutality and the caged babies and the disappearing of citizens and the terrorism and the attempted coup and the autocracy and the ending the rule of law and the threats to invade neighboring countries and the building-a-golf-resort-on-top-of-a-genocide, but now he’s giving Wall Street the jitters, so I’m not so sure about this guy any more.
