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.”
Glad the senator sees it.
He gives us lip service, but actions speak louder than words.
That’s my thinking here, like… Is he the first of many to realize they were wrong? Or will most of them just go down with the cult ship shouting praise the whole way?
They always express their concerns as soon as they have finished voting in favor.
they are know reminiscing they will end up like cheney and kazinger.
