The Republicans have completely abandoned fiscal conservatism, and their huge deficits are going to be a gigantic problem. They also seem to be abandoning free trade, which will cost the economy hundreds of billions of dollars per year. Unless it kicks off a trade war, which could easily trigger a deep recession. They should be ashamed of themselves. Trump is a blowhard who doesn’t know much about trade policy, but the Republicans in Congress should know better. Hell, the last time a Republican was President he tried steel tariffs, and he had to go back on it after disastrous results. So not only are Republicans violating their own stated philosophy, but they seem incapable of learning from their own recent history.
How am I doing? Do I need to add some expletives for completeness?
