Republicans, grasping for an issue to attack Democrats over as they head to expected losses in this fall’s midterm elections, have inexplicably decided to embrace President Donald Trump’s widely unpopular tariffs. “House Democrats had a simple choice: stand with American workers or side with Communist China. Voters won’t forget who stood with American workers and who stood with Beijing,” said NRCC spokesperson Mike Marinella in a statement. Marinella’s comment runs contrary to reality as experienced by millions of American workers. Additionally, 54% of respondents said they opposed Trump’s tariffs against China, the issue the Republicans are campaigning on.
