Trump does care about the pain, chaos, and turmoil he’s causing—in the following sense:

I represent a district with $12 trillion of value. I'm proud of economic success and innovators.
But if the ultra-wealthy have to pay a little more so we don't get drastic cuts to Medicaid, fired veterans, and can have Medicare for All - that is the patriotic thing to do.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I think Marco Rubio probably needs to be sent back to school.. When you arbitrarily rip up trade agreements, threaten a country, and say you’re going to break it, that’s an act of war. And Canadians have responded in kind.

Republicans snuck a provision into the rule for the CR that would preemptively surrender congressional authority to block tariffs.
When House Republicans vote for this rule today, they will also be voting to support Trump's tariffs and all the resulting damage to the US economy

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff
