Yes, Trump the saboteur's tariffs are bad and doing enormous harm to the country.
But he's not finished. The budget bill he's trying to pass will essentially bankrupt the United States and do an incredible amount of additional and lasting harm.

Thank you Senators for working to take back your authority to authorize tariffs. Just last January,our economy was the envy of the world. 10 weeks after the inauguration, it’s in flames. House of Reps? Are you there? Your turn!!!! @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @angiecraigmn.bsky.social
President Trump is igniting an unjustified trade war with Canada which is going to drive up costs for Americans and wreck our economy.
Last night, Senate Democrats and four Republicans passed my bipartisan bill with Tim Keane to reverse these tariffs.
