Summary
Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) warned of uncertainty over Trump’s sweeping new tariffs, saying, “In the long run, we’re all dead,” and slammed blind loyalty to the policy.
While Kennedy didn’t vote against Trump’s emergency tariff powers—unlike four GOP senators—he criticized the lack of clarity on economic impacts.
Trump imposed a 10% baseline tariff on all imports, falsely claiming foreign nations will bear the cost.
Kennedy told Newsmax that predictions on the tariffs’ effects are unreliable, adding anyone claiming certainty is “lying” or “selling deep stupid.”

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.)is all about blind loyalty.
John Kennedy should be drinking Night Train Express from a paperbag behind the Circle K. He’s helped assure that the billionaires will eventually become trillionaires once they vulture all the tanked stocks. He’ll be rewarded for it, don’t you worry your pretty head about his “concerns”.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving pack of rodents.
don’t hate on rodents
If only these Republicans “speaking out” against Trump decimating the economy were members of some kind of political body with the power to stop this executive overreach…
Dam maybe they should stop voting for it and enabling it.
It’s like they want to support a fascist coup and not be executed when it goes wrong.
He’s pulling a McConnell (blocked impeachment consequences both times), have all the power to prevent it and do nothing, then complain when shit happens because of you to try to shift the blame.
I was fine with the rape and the fraud and the endless lies and the misogyny and the racism and the homophobia and the transphobia and the corruption and the police brutality and the caged babies and the disappearing of citizens and the terrorism and the attempted coup and the autocracy and the ending the rule of law and the threats to invade neighboring countries and the building-a-golf-resort-on-top-of-a-genocide, but now he’s giving Wall Street the jitters, so I’m not so sure about this guy any more.

wasn’t concerned enough about President Donald Trump’s steep international tariffs to vote against them Wednesday
Then shut the fuck up and enjoy your vote.
Oh, wouldn’t that be nice.
While Kennedy didn’t vote against Trump’s emergency tariff powers
Shut the fuck up then, Senator. Your vote matters. Your comments don’t.
One more dinosaur who thinks people should give a fuck about things other than his actual actions. Pure distraction.
News that I was forced to listen to in the break room at work said that the tariffs will be good for America and long as the country don’t put retaliatory tariffs that they just lay down and take them then Trump won’t add more. Seriously tired of our media bending the knee for trump and lying to thier listeners.
Watching Fox, were you?
Nope Channel 6 news in Tulsa.
forced to listen to in the break room at work
What “news” was this, if you don’t mind me asking?
Totally agree that US media is a shell of what used to be journalism. Profits control all.
Our local channel 6 news. They’re right wing news.
Probably a Sinclair owned station. Their as bad or worse than Fox because their stealthier.
Nope locally owned. They love letting us know that. Just owmed by Trump loving people.
Came here to ask same question. I understand crazytown far right talk radio, but if this was something else, I’d be curious what it was.
Obviously it’s Fox
Or OAN, which is more crazy even against Fox
Oh, won’t someone save me from my abusive self!
These idiots passed the CR, and knew it was going to happen lmao tf? is this
