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.”

    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.
