Republican senators cheer on Trump's tariffs as bargaining chip to secure border

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChLtXXpo4Ge1ReTEboVvTDg https://ift.tt/GW3SDq5 U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement of a 30-day pause on tariffs against both Canada and Mexico have halted – at least for now – a continental trade war that economists on both sides of the border warn would raise prices. Many Republican lawmakers have stayed silent on the president’s tariff agenda – caught between risking Trump’s ire and backlash from constituents concerned about rising costs. With a temporary reprieve in place, however, some Republicans expressed their support for Trump’s actions. “Oh yeah, it was great,” said Sen. Josh Hawley. “Look at what we got out of it in relatively short order.” Sen. Ted Cruz also expressed his support for Trump’s use of tariffs as a bargaining chip, stating that it would help secure America’s borders.
