Trump Loyalist Senator Warns President That The Economy Will Be All His Fault
HuffPost
"He will be held responsible, as he should," the Republican senator said of Trump.
Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) said Monday that President Donald Trump will have to shoulder the blame for economic hardship if his tariff strategy fails. (Watch the video below.)
“Do you think it’s Donald Trump’s economy now?” CNN’s Kasie Hunt asked him.
“Oh, I think it is,” Kennedy replied. “There’s no question. I think once he decided to add the tariffs, clearly, I mean, he will be held responsible ― as he should ― whether it turns out good or it turns out badly.”
That’s blunt talk from an election denier who got Trump’s endorsement for his 2022 reelection bid and sides with the president on many issues.
The short term of Trump’s aggressive taxes has been disastrous. Kennedy called it “painful” in his CNN interview. Markets reached historic lows after Trump imposed blanket global tariffs and threatened bigger ones to ratchet up a trade war.
