Sen. Ron Johnson, Wisconsin Republican, said Sunday that President Trump negotiated brilliantly with Mexico by securing a border-security deal days after threatening to impose tariffs.
In general, Republicans understand tariffs are attacks on American consumers, and we dont want to see them in place long term, not do I believe President Trump does, either, Mr. Johnson told Fox News Sunday. Hes using tariffs as leverage in trade negotiations, and I think he used them as leverage in this situation brilliantly, quite honestly.
Mr. Trump announced Friday he would suspend his threat of a tariff starting at 5 percent and rising as high as 25 percent after reaching an agreement with Mexico on border security.
That deal includes deploying 6,000 National Guard troops with a focus on its southern border to stem the tide of illegal immigrants crossing from Central America on their way to the United States, as well as expand a program keeping asylum-seekers in Mexico as they await the results of their cases.

That’s high praise from a Bush League Republican.
You got that right, I was amazed.
Yes, he did.
Can we just go ahead and get rid of the GOP now, because they are not needed for anything at all, especially since they don’t know how to do anything at all.
Yet GOP Senator Ted Cruz joined the traitorous Republican Senators who publicly opposed POTUS Trump on this (while the POTUS was overseas for the D Day Remembrance).
Disclaimer: I was a Cruzer before I was a Trumpster. Well, for a few Months anyway.
He did go on to state his opposition to tariffs in general but not in this case, and he’s entitled to his opinion, but the fact is he still praised Trump.
That it should have to be news when an R does praise Trump is what hurts.
I recognized what a phony and a fraud Cruz was when he was running while Canadian.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d take a Cruz over a Beto any day of the week and twice on Sunday, but his latest stunt brought me back to his Speech at the RNC Convention.
In this instance it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to talk and remove all doubt. I was actually quite surprised when he joined Cornyn on this.
The GOP hates how Trump exposes their treasonous behavior.
“That it should have to be news when an R does praise Trump is what hurts.”
So now that Trump has achieved a result, where are the rest of the useless RINO Pr!cks in the Senate? Where is B!tch McConnell, “grooming his scrotum neck?”
Guess they are over at the Koch Bros. place for some serious a$$ kissing! When I see what they are doing to subvert what may be America’s last chance at remaining the special place that our forefathers created, I can hardly contain myself.
I wasn’t, he is a Bush League Republican like most of them, he’s just been better at hiding it.
“In this instance it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to talk and remove all doubt. I was actually quite surprised when he joined Cornyn on this.”
I could not agree more. Some of us have long memories.
Let'd wrap this FReepathon up Folks, Donate Today!
Is Pompeo learning anything from his boss?
Those Senators who had a knee jerk reaction, including the fraud,
Canadian Cruz will pay a price. How big a price is yet to be determined.
Bump!
Now, who were the RINOs who opposed this move?
Cornyn and Cruz were the most egregious offenders given their location.
Oddly enough, Rubio supported the President.
“scrotum neck?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
