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.

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.
