Michigan GOP Nominee Rogers Defies Trump on Canada Tariffs Ahead of Midterms

Michigan Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers released a new advertisement on Wednesday calling for an immediate end to the U.S.-Canada tariff war, marking a significant break from President Trump’s trade policy. The move occurs weeks before the midterm elections, as Rogers faces a tight race against Democrat Abdul El-Sayed. This is the second major policy divergence from the White House, following Rogers’ earlier call to end the Iran conflict. The ad, coordinated with the National Republican Senatorial Committee, emphasizes lowering consumer prices and bipartisan cooperation, reflecting a broader trend among Republican candidates in competitive states distancing themselves from the administration’s unpopular economic agenda.
