If other countries stood up to his tariffs last year maybe our house and Congress would have stood up to him sooner before it was too late. The whole world bent a knee to him.

Ah so it’s everyone else’s fault that Americans are gutless? That makes a lot of sense to me that you would think that. Countries enacted counter tariffs, which is standing up to tariffs.
