GOP Split Over Trump's Tariff Push Ahead of Midterms

With midterms looming, Republicans are pushing back on Trump's tariff push—importing tariff-free Canadian meat and slapping 50% levies on $20B of Canadian goods—arguing it would raise U.S. prices and hit voters hard. Senators like Susan Collins and Rep. Ashley Hinson criticized the move; the Wall Street Journal called it dumb. Canada vows retaliation, polls show Democrats ahead on the economy, and some GOP voices are trying to distance themselves from Trump on the issue.
