Now, let’s find the most vulnerable Republicans who voted to keep the tariffs, and run ads attacking them for raising prices for Americans.

Poof! There goes the Republican majority. Canada can kill it.

Why did only 6 House Republicans vote against Trump's tariffs on imports from Canada? This post makes it very explicit, as Trump vows that those GOP lawmakers who oppose his tariffs 'will seriously suffer the consequences.'

House MAGA Republicans buck Trump on tariffs but happily green light his plan to keep people from voting so they can stay in power. Never forget that this is a regime of the bullies, by the bribes, for the billionaires.

Trying to understand: the Constitution gives Congress the power to impose tariffs. The President imposes tariffs without Congress. Congress passes a law rescinding his tariffs. The President then vetos that law. Seems like something’s wrong here.
