Senator agrees from the Republican Party that Trump is making progress in the trade war

Democratic Pennsylvania late. John Vitman He admitted that his party made a mistake in the president Donald Trump’s tariffAnd, so far, the American trade war “is going well.”

Vitman asked “Fox News Digital about whether he believed the Trump administration is winning in the trade war,” definitely. “

“I am a great fan with Bill MaherI mean, I think it is really one of the Uracles of my party, and he confessed to that, it is like, hey.

So, for me, it seems, “it seems that the thing in the European Union was going well, and I think we will see how it happens with China.”

This comes at a time when Trump is increasing the tariff for Canada from 25 % to 35 % from Friday, after the American neighbor fails to help reduce the imports of fentanel and other illegal drugs.

The White House indicated that Trump signed an executive order on Thursday to increase the customs tariff in an attempt to hold Canada accountable for its role in the flow of illicit drugs to the United States

In addition, Trump signed another executive on Thursday to amend the mutual tariff rates for some countries to further address the trade deficit of the United States.

The White House said this measure reflects Trump’s efforts to protect the United States from foreign threats to national security and economics by securing “fair, balanced and mutual trade relations.”

Earlier this year, Trump announced an additional 10 % tariff for all countries as well as a higher tariff for countries with a large trade deficit with it.

The definitions are valid on April 9.

Since then, Trump and his team have since concluded many commercial deals with many countries.

The United States concluded a deal with European Union Where the European Union approved the purchase of $ 750 billion of US energy and new investments worth $ 600 billion by 2028.

The European Union also agreed to accept a 15 % tariff rate.

The United States also concluded a deal with Japan, which has agreed to invest $ 550 billion in the United States to rebuild and expand American basic industries.

Japan also agreed to strengthen its American exports market, such as the European Union, and Japan agreed to a 15 % base tariff.

However, many Democrats dig into their wake against the Trump tariff strategy, saying that negative effects are still on the horizon.

Senator Jack Reed expects, d. “Within a few weeks or months, you will start seeing great increases in most of the things you buy. Also, you will see a disturbance in terms of many of our industries, because they are unable to reach the product or offer. “

“When you have a comprehensive tariff, it works like a national sales tax, and I think people will be more and more,” Senator Chris Van Holin predicted.

“This is the president who said he will come and reduce prices,” Van Holin said. “The prices will rise, and it will rise more over time.”

The Democratic Senator said at Massachusetts Elizabeth Warren “Donald Trump He may overcome his chest and say, “O man, he made him take a 15 % tariff or a 25 % tariff,” but also realized that each of these commercial partners is now looking hard all over the world to find other customers, because Donald Trump indicates loudly and clearly that the United States during Donald Trump is not a reliable commercial partner. This is not good for any of us. “

Warren also claimed that Trump’s tariff is the reason that the federal reserve did not reduce American interest rates.

“Jerome Powell said last month that he would have reduced interest rates in February if it was not for the chaos that Donald Trump was creating on trade. The result was that the American families, six months ago, were pushing more on credit cards, more on auto loans, and more home real estate loans, all because Donald Trump created chaos. “

Meanwhile, the Republicans who spoke with Fox News urged the president to double his identification strategy.

“I think this is the exact right approach. This is what I was urged by the president to do, and I think the successes he wins are great victories for America,” said Senator Cruise, R-TEXAS.

In response to the Democrats who are still predicting economic repercussions due to the customs tariff, Cruz noticed sarcastically, “I was shocked, shocked that the Democrats rooted the economy to do badly during the era of President Trump.”

“It will be great for some Democrats to put their partisan hatred of Trump and start working together for American workers and American jobs. Unfortunately, I don’t see many Democrats interested in doing this now,” said Cruz.

Senator John Kennedy, R, expressed. While it agreed that the successful definitions expressed the hope that the goal was to achieve the mutual percentage of the United States and its trading partners in the end.

“It is clear that the president got a good deal from one perspective. The Europeans collected them. They did.

“This is what I would like to achieve in all commercial deals,” Kennedy explained.

“Let the free institutions system work. It may be the best producer on the best victory. This, for me, will be the perfect situation.”
