    Ben Sasse on Trump’s latest trade threat: “Hopefully the President is just blowing off steam again but, if he's even half-serious, this is nuts.”

        Ben Sasse is the worst kind of GOP where you think that maybe they'll speak truth to power but they never do

        Sasse has been a trump enabler from the start. He is a big disappointment.

        By the time they decide to act, we will be in a full blown depression. Damage is easier to prevent than to fix. THIS is why there WILL be a "BlueTsunami". We, the people, are going to try to prevent as much damage as possible, since Congress isn't protecting the US.

        Genuine question here: can Trump still legitimately claim "national security" as justification for any subsequent tariffs he dreams up ?

        Did he ever have a "legitimate" claim of national security as justification for tariffs?

        Ben Sasse is bucking for a presidential run so every once in a while he has to say or tweet something like this so he sounds reasonable to those of us in the middle. But then he continues to do nothing and follow blindly.

        No @SenSasse Because your @GOP refuses to hold Trump accountable. The GOP willl have its name on the crash of the US economy from this asinine #TradeWar

        Because the GOP refuse to stand up to him. They have control of congress. They refuse.

        The turning point towards crazy may have been the realization that he is in peril by the special prosecutor.

        Why does everyone think he isn’t serious? Of course he is! He leads by his gut, and we see how well that’s doing.

        When I need to blow off steam I go to the gym, not threaten China with billion dollar tariffs.
