“Do you assume it’s Donald Trump’s economic system now?” CNN’s Kasie Hunt requested him.
“Oh, I feel it’s,” Kennedy replied. “There’s no query. I feel as soon as he determined so as to add the tariffs, clearly, I imply, he can be held accountable ― as he ought to ― whether or not it seems good or it seems badly.”
The quick time period of Trump’s aggressive taxes has been disastrous. Kennedy known as it “painful” in his CNN interview. Markets reached historic lows after Trump imposed blanket world tariffs and threatened bigger ones to ratchet up a commerce struggle.
“In the long term, we’re all useless,” he stated. “Quick run issues, too. No person is aware of what the influence of those tariffs goes to be on the economic system.”
