The Spin

Trump's tariffs are unconstitutional power grabs that make Americans poorer while Congress shamefully abdicates its constitutional duty to control taxation. These import taxes have already cost families $1,000 in 2025 and will hit $1,300 this year, artificially raising prices without bringing back jobs. The administration speaks out of both sides of its mouth, claiming tariffs are essential before courts while admitting alternative tools exist if they lose.

House Republicans who voted against protecting Trump's tariffs betrayed America's sovereignty and the president's mandate to restore domestic manufacturing. This is the United States, not the International States of America, and tariffs remain the essential tool to address national emergencies and remake the global economy in America's favor. Congress needs to support the president's geopolitical strategy instead of undermining it.
