Donald Trump’s reckless economic policies are already hurting American families — and Republicans in Congress are letting it happen.
Trump’s new blanket tariffs are sending the markets into chaos. Experts are warning of rising inflation and higher costs for working families. Meanwhile, Trump conveniently left Russia and North Korea off his tariff list. Why? Because this was never about strengthening America — it’s about rewarding his friends and punishing his enemies.
The worst part? Republicans like Speaker Mike Johnson are too scared to stand up to him.
Gerry Connolly knows we can’t sit back and let Trump dismantle our economy to feed his own ego. And he’s not afraid to say it: country should always come before party.
We’re calling on Speaker Johnson and every Republican in Congress: Grow a spine. Stand up to Trump. Defend the American people.
If they won’t put the country first, then it’s up to all of us to hold them accountable.
