Susan Collins Says Trump Doesn’t Grasp Tariff Impact

“Sen. Susan Collins says the White House doesn’t understand how its trade war with Canada is affecting Maine,” Politico reports.

“The five-term GOP incumbent said she has spoken with Vice President JD Vance and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer about the escalating tariffs between the two countries, which come as Collins faces a heated reelection race in a state that has close economic ties with Canada. But the White House has shown little sign of relenting on what has been a cornerstone of President Donald Trump’s trade policy, and Collins hasn’t spoken with Trump himself.”
