Senator Tom Cotton said U.S. farmers and consumers who feel the pinch of President Donald Trump's trade war with China should consider the 'sacrifices' made by soldiers fighting abroad or buried in Arlington National Cemetery.
In perhaps the most left-field defense of President Donald Trump's ongoing trade war with China, Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas said Americans hurting from the tariffs increases should think of the"sacrifice" of U.S. soldiers overseas.
Speaking on CBS This Morning on Monday, Cotton said that U.S. farmers and consumers being hurt by Trump's trade war with China should consider the"sacrifices" made by soldiers fighting abroad or buried in Arlington National Cemetery in Washington. "So these tariffs are going to end up hurting both Chinese and some Americans, I will grant you that. I think they'll ultimately hurt the Chinese more than they will Americans, in part because Chinese companies and their government have been cheating the United States for so long," Cotton said.
"Why not tell them that on the front end?" host John Dickerson asked Cotton, reminding him that Trump and several Republicans had repeatedly denied that American consumers or companies would be hurt from trade war.
