The Wall Street Journal editorial board said President Donald Trump’s recent remark about tariffs could be used against Republicans in the 2026 midterm elections.
Trump last week dismissed concerns about the impact of his 25% tariffs on foreign-made autos by admitting “I couldn’t care less” if they lead to higher prices for American consumers.
Trump argued it would boost domestic sales.
In an editorial, the Journal’s conservative board slammed Trump’s “ideological fixation” on tariffs and noted how even he has acknowledged they will cause at least short-term pain for Americans.
