U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan said on Thursday the United States should initiate “surgical” actions against China to stop it from dumping steel and aluminum instead of President Donald Trump’s broader tariff plan.
Noting that the United States should focus on China’s metals sales that are “trans-shipped” through other countries at unfair prices, Ryan said: “I really think the best policy is to be surgical and specific.”
One of the GOP’s weakest, most spineless characters happens to be Speaker of the House Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI), who has repeatedly spoken against Trump and his policies, yet always backpedals when it really counts. Ryan showed this cowardly behavior today, when he basically begged other House Republicans not to “bully” Trump about his awful tariff decision, an idea is going to kill the economy.
Speaking to employees of Home Depot in Atlanta, Ryan, a Republican, added: “I’m just not a fan of broad-based, across-the-board tariffs because I think you’ll have a lot of unintended consequences. You’ll have a lot of collateral damage.”
