Former vice-president says tariffs ‘not a win for the American people’ and predicts public pressure will grow

I will guess that many of you don’t like Mike Pence, but he has said a few things which I think are good:

  • He has said Trump’s tariffs will probably harm Americans
  • He has criticised Trump for not backing Ukraine
  • He seems to want to respect Canada’s sovereignty, describing Canada as “a great ally, whose soldiers have fought and died alongside Americans in every war since world war one”

    Not a hero, however standing up to a literal Lynch-mob (remember the gallows they set up) to follow the law and ensure democracy continued is a at least commendable.
